Movie format question (1 Viewer)

[Lukky]

I rip my movies down to Vob files. When I use IMDB it trys to find info for all of the VTS 01, VTS 02, not just the main movies. How am I messing this up. What format and program (Ripper/decrypter) do you use for your movies.

Thanks Dustin

Hi,

do you do the scan for infos on the folder or on the files? I also rip my movies to VOB. Make sure that also the IFO files are ripped and that your folder structure looks like this:

/RIP/SPIDERMAN/VIDEO_TS/*.VOB
/RIP/SPIDERMAN/AUDIO_TS/ (optional)
/RIP/LORD_OF_THE_RINGS/VIDEO_TS/*.VOB
/RIP/LORD_OF_THE_RINGS/AUDIO_TS/ (optional)

You now can do a scan on the movie-folder itself, eg. "SPIDERMAN" and MP will scan for this name.

HTH,
Flip.

I think my sturcture is right. See if this looks right.
Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Videos\Boston Legal S2 D1\FullDisc\BOSTON LEGAL

I dont see any options search in folders or files. Where is that located?

I love all the diversity of countries in this forum thats just awesome. I have never been involved in a forum as far reaching as this one.

Thanks Dustin

Take care that your VOBs are located in these subdirs:
...\BOSTON LEGAL\VIDEO_TS\*.VOB
...\BOSTON LEGAL\AUDIO_TS\

And do not forget the *.IFO files!

There is no extra option, its the normal option as for files. It makes no difference, if you hit F3 on a file or on a folder. In this case "\BOSTON LEGAL\".

I am going to play with the file structure and see if that helps. Ofcourse the more I read the more I learn. I did not realize about the f3 key and what it would do. I just ran accross it in the Wiki and then I read your reply. Now I have more to go try.

Thanks Dustin

The f3 key is awesome. I was trying to do the scan from within the setup utility. I am guessing no one gets good results with that. Now I just have the cover art that I want.
