I too was disappointed to find that the recent builds couldn't ignore "The" in
file mode.
Library is all fine and dandy for people who don't suffer from OCD or are extremely
anal like myself.
I like my Library to be perfect so my "Downloads" folder isn't part of it. I do not
have time to cleanup my Downloads folder to move contents to their proper
place as soon as they are downloaded. I do it once a week or even once a month. So i use file mode to watch yesterday's episode of "The Cleaner" or
"The Shield". The 1st one used to be under the C's and the second under the S's.
I do not want to have to scan a filename that is not in it's proper place and that
is not named the way i like it. I personally cannot stand to have files in
my extensive library that are named
"The.Shield.S07E01.REPACK.DSR.XviD-0TV.[VTV].avi"
I rename those when i have time and they are then moved to the proper
drive :
The Shield-(7x01)-Coefficient of Drag.avi
What's annoying is that before library mode, i used to name my movie folders
in this way :
Bourne Ultimatum, The (2007)
But the IMDB scraper wouldn't always find movies named this way. Then i
found the wonderful option of ignoring "The" so i renamed all my folders to
the proper way. Now, it is gone from filemode.
I am trying to find a way to use Library mode all the time but it isn't easy
to do because i download a lot of stuff every day and simply cannot spend
all my free time preparing files to be imported into the library. I already am
way behind in importing my current 7 TB of Movies and TV Shows but when
i figure out the best way, i will let all the other OCD sufferers know
P.S. This is by no means a rant/flame. Just explaining one of the many reasons
why many people are not in Library mode 24/7.
