Why put the ISO inside a folder with the same name, isn't that redundant? I just have a folder of DVD ISOs with the name of the movie:

Code:
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather - A Novel for Television [Disc 1 of 2].iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather - A Novel for Television [Disc 2 of 2].iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather - The Coppola Restoration (1972).iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather (1972).iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather Part II - The Coppola Restoration (1974).iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather Part II (1974) [Disc 1 of 2].iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather Part II (1974) [Disc 2 of 2].iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather Part III - The Coppola Restoration (1990).iso
\\whs-server\Movies\DVD\The Godfather Part III (1990).iso

Prob for the same reason I do. Better organization. Separate folder for movie, poster thumb, fanart, and nfo file.

Some of my Bluray ripped discs to mkv show a videocodec "vc1" or "hdmv".

For this codectype no icon will show.

It is possible that this codecs not supported for the flagging?

Thanks

It is more possible that the skin you're using doesn't have icons for those types. For example, the default Confluence skin has one for vc-1, but not vc1. There isn't one at all for hdmv.

If you create your own icons for these types and drop them where your skin expects them to be, I bet they'll show up.

For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.

language flags and perhaps a filter would be awesome, 50% of my movies have a second audio stream in german and until now I can't use the library because I have to write the DL information in the foldername

Hi!


First a big respect for the media flags!

Second why not give the skinner the option to take the correct datas easily and then it's his prob to make something right with it...

I mean the width and height of a movie. Not rounded or interpreted.

Currently i am in the need for an option to get this from the video database.
Any hint?



Rgds.
