Rename 3D movies folder name - madmax2 - 2015-11-25

Is there a way to name my files for 3D movies
so that EMM can detect it and add a 3D name tag to the movie folder name

e.g. MovieFolderName (2014) 3D.. or something like that?

$V adds 3D if video stream has more than one "Multiview"

How would you set the folder pattern?

====
Does the video filename need to be name a certain way?

e.g. filename half-SBS.mkv

how would EMM know a video has 3D?

Ember use MediaInfo to read the embedded MKV headers.
You can check the Meta Data if Ember has recognized the 3d mode:

MKV provides most or all known 3d modes, but not all mkv's has set this informations. You have to set it manually in Embers Meta Data Editor or (better) with an MKV editor, ff the 3d informations are missing.

Kodi needs the "3d" and "sbs" or tab "flag" to recognize a file as 3d media. As always, Kodi try to read the header information directly from file while playback and write that info to the Kodi database.
The Renamer module in Ember can only set the "3D" flag after a simple check: If MultiViewCount greater then 1 => write 3D, else => write empty string.

If will add new $ tag for short version of "StereoMode" to convert "buttom_top" to "tab" and "left_right" to "sab". Half or not half whill be ignored, i have no idea how we can get this information from mkv.
There are many other 3d modes, but i have also no idea what Kodi needs as flag to recognize them.

I've added StereoMode and ShortStereoMode for Renamer (will be available in Ember 1.4.8.0):
$3 = ShortStereoMode
$4 = StereoMode

You have to use this tag to add proper informations for Kodi:

Code:
{.$V.$3}

This do rename the file like:

Code:
Avatar.3d.sbs.mkv

What is the pattern to rename the folder with 3D in the title?

I just need the folder renamed and the movie detected as 3D.

e.g.

MovieName (year) 3D

I tried this but it is not working..
-$T {($Y)} $V
