[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 781866, member: 82144"] For the moment I'd advise you to simply add them to the video section (we can always add them to the recordings section later). All that you need for that is to: 1. Open MediaPortal configuration. 2. Expand the "videos" node. 3. Select "video folders". 4. Add your recording folders there. Okay. Do you know how we can recover the spaces in the names then? Although it is obvious to us with this example, I'm going to need a way to figure it out in my script code, else we can't detect duplicates for those programs/episodes. Also: - what are the numbers on the ends of the file name? - is there any other metadata available from Sage that I can use? Cool, I can deal with that. :) This is only an issue for recordings, which are given special treatment. Sage's way of removing spaces seems equally weird to me because the info may not easily be recoverable. Importing into videos is a piece of cake. From there you can also get metadata using IMDB etc. mm [/QUOTE]
