Hey folks,
i got a problem and hope you can help me solve it:
Let's pretend i got a Movie on my disc and The folder is: "Movie".
So it would be "C:\Movie" for example.
But the Movie consists of multiple files.
So structure is like:
"C:\Movie\PathWhatever\Part1.mkv"
"C:\Movie\PathWhatever\Part2.mkv"
What now happens is, TinyMediaManager thinks they're different movies, even though i dont have "Multiple Movies per Folder" option activated.
I just want TMM to do this:
"C:\Movie1" (with File1, File2, File3 in subfolder) -> find all files in the directory or subdirectories, and pretend it's just one movie!
What am i doing wrong?
If you know about "AVCHD" -> That's what im talking about!
Or the wright term would be "BDMV" structure ...

You could have joined the mkvs into one in less time than it took you to type your post!

yeah but if i burn them onto dvd .. does it still work?!
most probably not, because if filesize exceeds 2gigs, you have to change dvd format to UDF.
And most DVD Players can't play UDF discs ...
so i want my multiply files and TMM to ignore whatever is in a folder and just use the foldername...

Actually there is a 4GB file size limit on a iso9660 filesystem (ie the filesystem on a DVD)

your help is appreciated, but that's not what i was asking for.
i don't want to merge the movies nor do i want to move them.
TMM lists the parent folder AND the subfolder "stream" as an own movie.
Thats not correct and makes TMM useless for me, unless it's a configuration issue!
in the feature list it says "Handle DVD/BluRay structures" -> but it doesn't work, obviously!

That is not a bluray structure.

If you use a (fake) BDMV structure, please do one of the following things:
a) put your movie files into one directory which has the movie name
"C:\Movie\Part1.mkv"
"C:\Movie\Part2.mkv"
we support movie file stacking - this will be recognized the right way. Be sure the file names end with either: cd, dvd, part, pt, disk, disc and the counter
b) create a real BDMV structure: for this you need to have a folder name called BDMV or VIDEO_TS between the movie directory and the files
"C:\Movie\BDMV\Part1.mkv"
"C:\Movie\BDMV\Part2.mkv"
this _should_ also work
I'd prefer a)!!

Glad you found a media manager you like, even it's not TMM.
Nevertheless, i would be interested in a complete directory listing of one of your AVCHD folders.
I just tried it - the BD within is correctly detected here as a single movie...

Is there any chance that TinyMediaManager will ever be able to manage full DVD- and Bluray-Structures or will this feature never be realized?

I have ripped all my BDs and DVDs preserving the original directory structure of the discs.
This results for a BD in the following directory structure (besides some additional subdirs):
[Movie title] ---->[BDMV] --->[STREAM] ---> 00001.m2ts, 00002.m2ts, 00003.m2ts
If such a directory is being imported into TMM then TMM thinks that there are 3 movies named 00001, 00002 and 00003 instead of 1 movie called [Movie title].
