There is a setting in Media -> Video called Ignore video extras on scan that is off by default.

What this means is that by default anything in an Extras/extras subfolder will be indentified as an extra and added to the db, however they won't appear as seperate library entries creating clutter in the Library (no longer any need for anything in advancedsetting.xml), and the only way for these Extras to be seen and played is via Extras in the Movie Info dialog. We will look to improve the Extra handling in v22.

If you enable Ignore video extras on scan then previous behavoiur is restored and the extras would be added to the library as if they were normal movies creating potentially lots entries (hence why the setting is off by default).

It sounds like the name of the setting (or the behavior) is backwards, based on your description (and what manfeed says happens with it checked).  You say it's off by default, so that it won't scan extras into the library.  This sounds like it is "Ignor(ing) video extras on scan" when it is unchecked, ie disabled.  Enabling then does add to the library, as in your last statement...but that's the opposite of "ignore".
