Hello everyone. I have spent the past week researching the methods by which people set up multi disc movies (like the LOTR extended trilogy for example).
Now normally, I copy my movies using dvdfab, and retain the dvd/bluray directory structure. so:
M:\Movies\The Crow\Video_TS\"movie stuffs"
All the threads I found on multi disc movies however suggested that I then take this folder structure, and use imgburn to then create an ISO out of it. And then do the same for the second disc.
So then I would have something like:
M:\Movies\Return of the King\Return of the King Disc 1.iso
M:\Movies\Return of the King\Return of the King Disc 2.iso
I did this with one of my movies, and it shows up only one time in the menu, but I now don't understand how to access to second disc.
If I were to let return of the king get to the stopping point on disc one, where it asks me to insert disc 2, how would I get xbmc to switch to the second disc?
It would be nice if there were two discs in a movie folder, if when starting the movie it asked which disc you would like to launch. maybe that is how it is supposed to work?
I am using Frodo RC3 on Windows 7 x64. I use dvdfab to rip and Media Center Master to create my movie.nfo files and download my poster/fanart.
Any clarity on how xbmc should be handling multi disc movies would be great, as all the threads and wiki's I have read so far only tell you how to name the files... not what to expect or how to access them within the actual program.
