Ok, been arsing around for a week trying to put e bonus desks from Lord of the ring into the LOTR 'set' and someone recommended using this.
Looking at the three naming conventions and have a couple of questions on these.
1) put the extras folder into the movies folder.
All my films are just dropped directly into the standard xbmc movie folder - all 3TB's of films and so I'm not too eager to now go back and start making folders for each of them just so I can put an extras folder onto the odd one.
Can I have the odd film in its own folder and the rest not? I thought it was 100% one way or the other for scraping purposes?
This takes me to naming convention number
2) Same directory.
So if all my films are in the root movies folder then I could use this method and just put the word -extras- in it.
Firstly, how does this look? I mean does file name 'fellowshipofthering.mkv' have a making of video and I title it 'fellowshipofthering-extras-.mkv'?
How does the extras file look? And if the making of video is titled in this way then surely I can only have a single extra as they would all need to be titled the same
I'm confused.
3) remote location.
It leaves me thinking this would be the best way for me.
So what we're saying here is the folder should be called g:\extras\movies\*name of movie file*\ all extras video files?
*so the folder replicates the name of the video file exactly in order for the add on to know which film its for?
Sorry to be a pain in the arse. Does any of that make sense?
Thanks in advance
Update: sorry forget all that crap. It works fine using method 1.
Thanks for the help.
