thanks, but unfortunately this addable categorys are not working for me perfectly.

3D: ist not available.
sure, how can Moving Pictures know, which movie is in 3D? most 3D-movies have the standard- Full-HD-resolution 1920 x 1080.
maybe it could be solved, when I add a prefix "3D" in the name of these movie-files and Moving Pictures takes this info?

HD and non-HD: ist not very practicable

i can sort with, heigth and resolution.

i saw that I have a lot of different resolutions.

for example, i have withs with 1920, 1916, 1912, 1280, 1024 and a lot of smaller ones.

is it possible to summarize this values?

for example: Full-HD (1920 - 1800) / HD (1800 - 1200) / SD (1200 - 0)

then I have only 3 cathegories instead of 25!

thanks! ;)

    This could work. Use the matching rule: 'Original File Name - contains - 3D'

    HD and non-HD: ist not very practicable
    Works perfectly for me and I see no problem here.

    Just use 'Video Width - is greater that - 1500'

    SD = video width < 1000
    HD = video width >= 1000 AND video width < 1500
    Full-HD = video width >= 1500

    It all depends what you consider to be part of those resolutions, so adjust accordingly.

    As above , for sorting your HD movies , create a filter based on video width .

    For 3D movies , I created a filter based on file path .
    I have my 3D movies in a separate folder ( G /movies/3D Movies )

    I have the filter set to include any movies in that folder to the "3D " category .

    See attached screenshot .

    Hope this helps :)

    Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database". Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

On 5/24 for some reason we received 194 connections between 10:54 and 11:05 triggering a denial of service attack ban. The logs show it was lifted on 5/25, but I still see the entry in iptables. I reset fail2ban and hopefully you're working again." Weird...

    I currently have two Quatros running, one connect, one duo using OTA antennae, mostly UHF fringe area, mostly cat5 local network. Hauppauge card retired long ago. I have also retired very early SD units, the Quatros seem to work much better than the older units. Go to SD's support website and download and install the windows...
