Req change the way tvshows are handled
#1
i would like a change in how tvshows are handled in xbmc\kodi. now you need to have a folder structure with tvshow\episode, but this should not be necessary. tvshows could be looked at as music, when last time i tried, you don't need a artist\album structure. with the change of tvshow you could allow for flat tvshow structure.

That is totally not true.
Music uses the embedded idv3 tags which hold the data for that music file. That's why you can throw them anywhere.
Since this is totally not implemented for video you cannot know the contents of the file unless you have a specific name scheme.
We rely tvshow/episode structure to identify it.

ok, thought it used foldername for music, should be possible to make it use foldername or filename for tvshows.
