Hi Marius,
BDMV Structures are BluRays structures (copied to a local NAS Drive), the main difference ( as long as we are talking about storing metadata is that
a) VIDEO_TS
index in the VIDEO_TS director (VIDEO_TS.IFO) beneath all other video files
b) BDMV (aka BluRays)
two main directories: 1) BDMV ( contains all Movie, Menues organized in subfolders ) 2) CERTIFICATE (DRM with a unique id associate to this movie)
main Entry for the movie is also an index, which is stored in a file called index.bdmv which resides together with a file called MovieObject.bdmv directly in the root of the BDMV Directory.
All Movie Streams are stored in a directory underneath BMDV called STREAM, usuall named nnnnnnnn.m2ts (n == digit )
from my understanding XBMC is looking for metadata first at BDMV ( index.bdmv ), and it takes the nfo tbn-fanart files for this movie ( there is no need to drill down all the other dirs, thats up to the BR.Player).
Right now you store even the extrathumbs in the streams directory, which seams a bit missplaced :-)
Hope this explanation works for you ?
b) sets
as i said i work also witch the program mediaelch and sets are created accordently to your schema, but right now the attribute order=x is not stored, so all movies in a set have only the setname in <set></set>
which xbmc take without any problem.
rigth now i am facing differences between the amount of movies in most of my sets f.e. XBMC list all 22 Bonds in James Bond but your setmanager show only 5 of them even if there is this set attribute in the metadata files of the missed movies.
i dont understand why. Just reported it :-)
3) i am very happy to hear that trailers are NOT downloaded automaticly if you plan to do that pls make it configurable so some of us can switch it off ( i hate this thing: Why watching a ( mostly poor resolution ) trailer for something that you already have ( mostly in high resolution) ? sorry i havent got this concept :-) )
i preffer to keep the space for real movies.
Thanks again for your work.
