Hello everybody!
During the last fews years I had all my movies set up for folder management and was using vlc as video player. But now I would like to setup a multimedia center, of course using kodi. I red the wiki and thanks to it had easily set up my system.
But I still have questions regarding movie and TV Shows folder management.
----------------------------------------------
This is my organisation which seems to work well in Kodi but I would like to have your expert opinion since I am not respecting the wiki naming convention ... I use filebot for naming purpose.
Movies: (separates folders)
Movies/Chappie (2015)/Chappie (2015).mkv
I am also using "Collection" management...
Movies/Jurassic Park (1993-2015)/Jurassic Park (1993)/Jurassic Park (1993).mkv
Movies/Jurassic Park (1993-2015)/Jurassic World (2015)/Jurassic World (2015).mkv
Is it fine to regroupe movies like that? I like it that way because I can quickly check if my collection is complete or not and. Also if a folder have (date-date) ending, that means that there is at least 2 movies in subfolders, so don´t need to tag it as a " Collection"! And just to say I have an almost complete 007 collection, it´s a lot of movies!! It will be a desaster having all of them under "Movies folder"...
For TV Shows:
TV Shows/The Wire/The Wire S01/The Wire - 1x01 - The target.mkv
TV Shows/The Wire/The Wire S02/........................................
Here I am not using the "Season x" subfolder as wiki says, I prefer to have "Serie name SX", because sometimes I copy only one season on my tablet, and prefer to have the serie name in it... I red that a lot of people prefer the SXEX format, what´s wrong with SxE format?
----------------------------------------------
Well, this is the way I like to set up my media, and seems that it´s working in kodi and also in Video Station (synology). What do you think about it? Am I missing something? How are you doing your organisation?
Thank you for your advice.
have a nice day!
