[QUOTE="jburnette, post: 339362, member: 24356"] Thanks for the kind words. Great to hear it's working for you now and the girlfriend now. I try to design everything in such a way that my wife can navigate without having to ask questions. Thanks for helping me hunt down those bugs too. For your old mpg videos, I'd make sure I had a filter that coould decode mpeg-1 since that's possibly what you're dealing with (as opposed to mpeg-2 which is what most live TV is encoded in). If you're using ffdshow, make sure you've got that format set to decode with libavcodec. I may be way off on this, but I'd say that's close to what you're problem is. You could use something like gspot ( [url]http://www.headbands.com/gspot/v26x/GSpot270a.zip[/url] ) to check what type of compression is used for the specific file in question. Raw DVD structures are the next thing on my todo list. They are not supported right now, but will be in the next version (which certainly won't take 4 months like the last one). This will also include an expansion of the folder masking system to recognize structures like yours. You could make it work the way it is right now, but you'd have to make a few changes. You could put an info.txt file in the video_ts directory with artist=acdc and then rename your vob to Back in Black.vob. This would of course break the standard DVD structure, but would cause the scanner to add the video correctly. Or you could drop the Video_TS folder completely and rename the vob to acdc-back in black.vob. Obviously that's not the ideal solution, but it's the only way I know of that it would work right now.
