How can I name my multi-disc movie sets (Planet Earth, The National Parks, etc.) so that XBMC will pick up each disc and allow them to be played as separate movies? Currently it picks up the first disc and ignores the rest of them.

Thanks,
Dave

Have you followed the instructions in the wiki?

Yes. Thanks for the link, though.

The problem I'm having is "movies" that have more than one disc. Not movies that have sequels. For instance, Planet Earth has 5 discs, but all of them are still called "Planet Earth." As a result, I can only get it to pick up the first of the five discs. There is no such thing as "Planet Earth 2," etc... If I could get it to detect all 5 discs as Planet Earth (duplicates), I could rename them and group them accordingly. I can't even get them to scrape.

Thanks for any info you can provide.

There is the stacking option but that will play all 5 discs as though they were one. http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=File_Stacking

You could always go through an add bookmarks at the end of each disc to get around this.

Thanks! I will give that a shot.

You ever get working? Having same issue with The Hobbit and HP 7

May not be the answer your looking for but I've got both Plant Earth and The National Parks as TV shows and they work well there as episodes (which is what they technically are).

Seems like an issue with multi disc BDs/DVDs don't work correctly. Even when I turn sets off only 1 shows up. I have all my BDs in .iso format.
