Is there a way to have a collection within a collection? Here is my situation: I have the Die Hard movie series along with extras so here is my folder structure:
Movies\Die Hard\Die Hard.mkv (including NFO with "Die Hard Collection" added in <set> field)
Movies\Die Hard2\Die Hard 2.mkv (including NFO with "Die Hard Collection" added in <set> field)
Movies\Die Hard Extras\Making of Die Hard.mkv
Movies\Die Hard Extras\Die Hard Behind the scenes.mkv
How can I get the "Die Hard Extras" folder to appear within the Die Hard collection, and then be able to enter that extras folder to have access to all of those files? Is this even possible?

Tried that, but instead of having a Folder that opened to the extras within the Die Hard collection, it just put all of the individual extra files among the other Die Hard movies. Still not able to group the extras together within it's own folder within the collection.

Sorry didn't read this right :-( - and then be able to enter that extras folder to have access to all of those files?
Don't think that works......

Actually, my mistake on the first post, the extra's tree looks like this:
Movies\Die Hard Extras\Making of Die Hard\Making of Die Hard.mkv
Movies\Die Hard Extras\Die Hard Behind the scenes\Die Hard Behind the scenes.mkv
Each extra has it's own folder within "Die Hard Extras" so I could add a folder.png and it's own NFO. I tested putting "Die Hard Collection" in the <set> field and it did what I described above- placed the file among the other Die Hard movies, not within "Die Hard Extras" folder. Actually, there wasn't even a "Die Hard Extras" folder at all listed within "Die Hard Collection."
If I left the <set> field blank, it would but the extra file outside of the "Die Hard collection" and it would be listed in the general movie list.

True, that's what I plan on using as a last resort.
Perhaps a better way to explain what I am trying to do is similar to how you can set up TV Shows with "Specials" or "Season 00" folders- when you go into your TV show, each season is listed separately with the episodes within them, as well as a separate Specials folders for all the extras. I figured if TV Shows can do it, maybe it's possible to have something similar in "Movies" as well. But, looks like it's a different system.

Looks like there is no way to do what I was trying. Just going to add the xtras to the end of the list of movies within a collection.
