Hello,
I would like to put my ripped cartoons into my XBMC database but am not sure of a few things. I was thinking of putting them into the movie portion of my database, setting content as "movie". I was going to segregate them using the "movie collection" feature that can be added to the nfos. A couple questions:
should I put each cartoon into it's own folder as my other movies are or
should I have a folder setup as follows:
D:/movies/cartoons/Looneytunes/Golden Collection 1/DVD1/cartoon
D:/movies/cartoons/Popeye/Collection 1/DVD1/cartoon
D:/movies/cartoons/Disney/Mickey Mouse/DVD1/cartoon
D:/movies/cartoons/Woody/DVD1/cartoon
Is that too many folders for XBMC to go through?
Does anyone else have a setup where they use cartoons and how do you have it set up?
Along with this, I would like to be able to set up a smart playlist to randomly play a cartoon from any of the cartoon folders that I may have set up. Is this possible? I think it may be, but I haven't been able to find any examples of someone playing a random video file by perusing the Wiki or the Forums. Most of the playlist info is for playing music files. Could someone help me out by giving an example with the above folder structure?
Thanks,
Mark
