Right way of scraping multi-disc DVDs? - Tormentor667 - 2013-12-19

Dear XBMC-pros,

I am currently running into a strange problem and I have no idea to solve this. I turned my optical discs of Lord of the Rings Extended Edition into ISOs and put them on my XBMC harddrive. I actually have a total of 4 discs now per movie. What is the correct way to scrape these or put these into my XBMC?

Best regards,
Dan

Rename files to:
Lord of the rings DVD1.iso
Lord of the rings DVD2.iso
....
XBMC does not support brakets like "(DVD1)"...

How does this get displayed in XBMC? Is it somehow combined?

It's shows up as one movie, if you bring up movie infoview and look at file path it shows as stacked

Tried it now, the DVDs appear correctly in the list but I can't play them. Clicking on them does nothing. Is there a standard that I have to take care of?

I have multi disc movies with .img .iso .mkv .avi and all is working flawless
If you have video_ts structure I don't know how it works

Nothing special done, only that my files has cd# in the filename

I do indeed have the structure within the ISO but still XBMC tells me it can't open the files. Is there a way to verify the iso files?
