Hi guys!
I have a large collection of movies (1000+), all of them in Italian. I'm actually using the latest rls of xbmc with a great scraper: everything is working fine,except some movies not found; no problem, I just manage them manually.
The thing is that I have 4 XBMC clients: all the movies are on a NAS, each of them in its own directory.
What I would like to do is to store .nfo, fanart, poster and everything I want to download with the scraper on the NAS, so that if I have to work manually on a movie, I don't have to do it on 4 different clients.
I tried Ember Media Manager: it's really a good program... if the movies are in English. I used the modified "italian" scraper with it, but it's not working very well
So, the question is simple: is there any way by which I can make XBMC store all the metadata of a movie in its own directory from my workstation, so that the other clients can read the right datas? (without scraping them again)
Should be something like this
NAS
-->Movies
---->Matrix
------>Matrix.avi
------>Matrix.nfo
------>Matrix-fanart.jpg
------>Matrix.tbn
---->Shutter.Island
------>Shutter.Island.avi
------>Shutter.Island.nfo
------>Shutter.Island.jpg
------>Shutter.Island.tbn
and so on.
I don't want to use a "media manager", or at least I can't find one that works 100% with non built-in scrapers...(like, unfortunatly, EMM).
Thanks guys, appreciate your help..
