I have 4 external drive and I have my dvd's, tv shows, and blu rays spread across those drives. On each drive I have a three folders, TV, DVD, Blu Ray. So it goes something like this: Drive 1>dvd's1,tv shows1, blu ray's1; Drive 2>dvd's2, tv show's2, blu ray's2;.......I have been playing around with both Plex and xmbc. With Plex, when I first selected video there was nothing their, so I selected add source then selected dvd's1, tv show's1, blu ray's1, etc. for each drive. With xmbc, when I video I already see Drive1, Drive2, Drive3, etc. I don't think that I want to have the drive as my source because there is a mixture of content on those drives. So if I add source and select the folders dvd's1, tv show's1, etc. I can then scape the folders. But now I have a lot of sources show up when I select video and I can't delete those drive1, drive2, etc.
So my question is,
-when I am adding the source folder does it matter if I just add them one at a time and scrape each folder by itself, such as dvd's1, scrape; then add dvd's2, scrape; blu ray's 1, scrape, blu ray's2, scrape? Or do add all of the dvd's folders at one time and then scape all four of them at the same time?
-Is there any way to add blu ray and sd dvd as a genre? I have alot of movies on both dvd and blu ray, and I would like to be able to tell which it is I am selecting?
Thanks,
Steve
