OK, i feel very frustrated with this, i've checking the forum for ages, trying everything, but yes, i'm useless.
Im sure that what has been taking all day for me, will take just a second for someone else with a brighter mind than mine. I would rather do it myself, cause this is like going to the last page of the newspaper to check the solutions. But i surrender.
My problem is that XBMC is not stacking my movies when they come in various files. I know how should i tag it to make it work, but i have a huge collection of films, all of them with the same tagging. Changing all of them is not even a possibility. That's why i was trying to come up with a working advancedsettings.xml file, no luck though.
My usual tag is:
moviename (spanish title if different) [director, year] #.extension
Example:
The Hangover (Resacón En Las Vegas) [Todd Philips, 2009] #1.avi
The Hangover (Resacón En Las Vegas) [Todd Philips, 2009] #2.avi
How can i change advancedsettings.xml so it recognizes #1 and #2 as the same movie file?
My tagging is also causing another problem, less annoying but would be brilliant to also fix. XBMC thinks the title of the film is the name of the director, so it sometimes comes up with a short film or a documentary about the director instead of the actual film. Is there a way to tell XBMC where to look for the title in the taging i posted earlier?
Since i bought my first computer, i have all my files sorted, tagged... all of them... Been able to make this work will be very appreciated. Really.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Will
