[QUOTE="Mcgreag, post: 531959, member: 99416"] I never change filenames but I almost always change directory names. Removing group and similar info just leaving the name of the show. For one file anime I create a directory named of the movie to place it in. I currently use 5x 1TB USB drives with the anime sorted by name. Drive 1 is A-C, 2 is D-G etc. If there are multiple series/movies for an anime I create a main directory like for example Gundam and place individual shows below that. I am considering adding some toplevel directories, Series, Movies, Live Action etc but haven't decided. Haven't used a mediacenter software before but with the growing size of the collection it's starting to become difficult to keep track on what is what and what is good. So something that can display poster/screenshot and a short description looks interesting. Been testing Mediaportal with MyAnime2 a bit and it's mostly good. ATM I am mostly concerned about bad mouse support (I don't have a remote control and I prefer not to have to use the keyboard when sitting in the couch) and that fact that it won't display at all the stuff that it can't identify.
