It would be better if there was an option which tells the movie database scanner to look at the name of the folder instead of the files.

It shouldnt be hard to implement this option.. right?

That would be great! I always name the folder with the movietitle, but keep the filename the way it was named when downloaded, so i can find the right subtitle for the movie.

Same here.
I always name the folders as the movietitle while the moviefiles is kept as they were.

Last time when I installed the...
