I just use 'The Mist-1', 'The Mist-2', but am thinking of using 'The Mist-cd1' and 'The Mist-cd2" instead since it makes more sense that way, and depending on the length of movie title anyway.
If Spiff is telling you to reactivate your sense of humor, that's saying a lot!! LOL

I like this idea, the current stacking scheme is far too wide and I don't usually use stacking because it usually has side-effects and ends up stacking movie sequels for example.
Truth be told 1 or 2 methods would be fine - and whatever they were i'd be happy to convert to what ever methods are being adopted.

I use Movie Name 13 - Cd1.avi just as many others.
But I've noticed that no matter wich release of T3CH's builds, or any others for that matter, of XBMC (and with fresh installations) I get that the stacking automaticlly turns off by itself every now and then.
A bit irritating.

Well, I'm gonna try deleting viewmodes*.db as mentioned in another thread, and see if that helps.
But it's obviously an issue with the stacking option then.

the problem is the part identifier can come not only at the end of the string:
name part 1
can be:
name part 1 (text)
That's a simple example. Still relatively easy to match these part identifiers in the middle as well.. The point is to not match what is not a part ID.
like 1/2, 1/3 is a part ID
I foresee some complications with these types of part ids with episodes from tv shows..
they usually use the mulitplication symbol though
The point is.. You can explicitly list out different part id's to match, and then take advantage of negative lookbehinds, positive lookaheads.. etc.. to make sure its not what you don't want... I think this is the best route.

Show me some examples of strings that conflict with the part identifiers, like 01..1/3 etc..
Here is a simple examp:
(?P<start>.*?)(?P<part>(?:\d+/\d+|part\s*\d+\s*of\s*\d+|part\s*\d+/\d+|part\s*\d+))(?P<end>.*)
i modifier
s modifier

I use the same as what everyone else is using so no probs if ye wanna make a change.
e.g.
XXXX.cd1.avi
XXXX.cd2.avi
