Movie File names Problem please help - SimplyMac2012 - 2013-01-20
I own a Apple TV 1st Generation i upgraded the Hard Drive to 250Gb no problem running 3.0.2 perfect
Then i bought from firecore the software to jail brake the ATV Silver fine no problems so far
I added a couple of movies from my iTunes library brilliant , but when i installed XBMC 11.0 - Eden and tried to find movies problems occurred.
I didnt realise that ATV puts them into folders in the Media Folder i.e 00 to 99 so i went looking for the movies when i found them there names had been changed
Is this normal ??

For the internal iTunes library, yes. Apple does some weird stuff on how it stores those files. You should be able to add files using some other method, like using a file transfer tool like Cyberduck (wiki). Then just use XBMC or Firecore's player to play back the movies in a folder structure that you want.
