I've played 2 hours around yesterday with XBMC on my main computer and the movie disks attached. Once I figured out how XBMC reads nfo, box arts and fanarts, it already worked smoothly on a test folder. And honestly it looks so much greater than the PCH skin I used.
How did you guys who also did the switch from YAMJ to XBMC rename your box arts (aka posters, thumbnails) and your fanarts?
I checked YANFOE yesterday and the option to set the file output to the formats used by XBMC exists. Strange thing though is that for my existing database, it doesn't seem to create a batch of new files, I'd have to click on each movie, but that's a YANFOE thing I guess.
Nevertheless, even if it'd work I'd have some trash files (the old ones with the YAMJ naming convention) in my movie folders.
--> So what I'm gonna do now (already did for one small movie folder) is: I'm going to rename the files using the program "Advanced Renamer". It seems for me the least hassle, but please tell me if you know an even simpler way to do it .
