Is there a way to configure this so that the DVD art can be named disc.png or what ever I want it to be?
I believe right now it names those arts as "discart.*" unfortunately the skin I am using doesn't see discart.* but does see disc.*
Thank you

Questions for TV shows.
In TV Preferences general which of the 4 settings are you using for actors for the best results?
With the autocreate screenshot option... This is pulling a screen shot from a few seconds in. Is there a way to change this? For many shows I will get the exact same screen shot for every episode with this setting.
Also, why are all the actor images so small compared to movie actors? All my actors are only 300x450... movies I see up to 1000x1500

Another question I can't figure out.....
When I started using this great program, I added movie folders and scanned and it worked right away!!
My TV shows are structured as such: F:\Television Shows\American Horror Story\Season 1\American horror story s01e01.avi ..............as an example. There are about 30 TV Shows all structured the same under F:\Television Shows\ as above.
I have tried adding TV folders to the TV Shows....folders page every way imaginable and can't get it to see them and then scrape them..................what am I doing wrong?
Sorry for another elementary question..............
Thank you!

Add F:\television shows\ to the left hand list of root tv folders.
Then in the right hand list at the bottom, click the button that says add series from root folder.
This should then populate all the TV series into the right hand list.
Click save

How do I add 'custom' TV shows?
I have some TV shows with lots of extras ripped from dvd's... so many in fact I simply made them their own show.
For example... 'Family Guy Extras'
Complete with seasons and episodes just like any other tv show... nfo, artwork etc.
I did this awhile ago when I was still using MediaElch....
They worked fine with Kodi but MC3 doesn't seem to like them as much.
One show is showing all the seasons but no individual episodes...
One is showing seasons and episodes but listing each episode 3 times and also merging with one other show for some reason...
Even if I have to start all over with these what is the best route to take?
Worse case scenerio I could throw these files in 'extras' folders but I plan on editing 1000's of home videos and making them accessible as a tv series so I need to know how to do this properly with MC3
EDIT>>>> In the folders tab under list of series folders I added the shows manually one by one.
Then in the main browser I did a refresh from nfo.
This is at least letting me browse everything properly and showing the artwork and screen thumbs.
One remaining issue is each show is listing twice... also now that I just added a 3rd show it interfered with the first one I added.
Show one is now showing the seasons from show 3 but displaying no episodes... hopefully that wasn't too confusing to understand...
But why is this happening??
