[QUOTE="Tinkerbell, post: 60747, member: 20562"] I have done a bit more investigation into this. One of the moderators has said in a previous thread (can't find it now) the following:- "...if a folder contains a single .avi (actually, any valid movie format) file, then clicking on the folder will cause the file to play. However, if you have mulitiple .avis (or other video files) in the folder, clicking on the folder will open the folder and display the folder contents. Then you have to click on whichever video file you need to play." This is the problem with the playlists, as DVD folders contain more than one *.ifo file. I can't think of a work-around on this, as it is a design conflict (rather than a bug) within Mediaportal. The solution would be to make Mediaportal recognise that a folder contains a VIDEO_TS folder and ensure that the folder (rather than the file contents) are added to the playlist. Would be nice to get a comment from a Mediportal programmer on this. [/QUOTE]
