[QUOTE="Furetto, post: 588905, member: 12375"] The recommended way to get an almost 100% match is the following: Have each movie in it's own folder. Give the folder the exact name of the movie followed by the year. The name of the movie can then be in any form you like. Example: movies\Gone with the wind (1939)\Gwtw.avi This is some work at the beginning if you have a lot of movies. But it does help :) A second option is if you have .nfo file with movie information, leave them in these folders. As typically in side these .nfo files there is the IDMB code for the movie. Moving Pictures picks up this code and thus makes a perfect match. For Gone With The Wind this would be "tt0031381" and you'll find all the information about this movie on [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0031381/]Gone with the Wind (1939)[/url] If this file does not exist, and you are willing to spend some time on it, you can create this file yourself.
