After migrating to Alpha 1 (haven't installed 2 yet) and updating my library, all of my multipart movies that were listed once became listed three times. One for the grouped files, and one for each individual file. Anyone know what could cause this?

Must be somthing they changed recently. This happened to me, and I removed the cource so it cleared my movie lib, then re-added and ended up with 2 part movies showing twice.

If you had read them you would have seen things have changed.
On top of this some default stacking has been removed for new feature compatibility reasons.
In essence you probably need to sculpt some new stackingr egex for your collection

So is there a record of what the regex used to be so we can just use that and not have to go through the arduous process of figuring out what expressions we should be using for our files?
Can I just copy/paste the stuff from your link into the file and be back to where I was before?

Yes but the old regex is in the old format so will need some tweaking

You shouldn't have to do anything, as everything (sanely named at least) should stack by default now. That's the whole point on improving things, after all.
If you have files that no longer stack, then you need to provide an example filesystem (using zerobyte files in place of real video files) so that we can use it to improve the defaults.
Cheers,

Ok, examples of movies showing up as two entries in the library:
\Movies\Batman Begins\Batman Begins - 1.avi
\Movies\Batman Begins\Batman Begins - 2.avi
\Movies\The Bourne Ultimatum\mdp-tbu-a.avi
\Movies\The Bourne Ultimatum\mdp-tbu-b.avi
\Movies\Die Hard\kms-dh.a.xvid.avi
\Movies\Die Hard\kms-dh.b.xvid.avi
\Movies\Freddy vs Jason\Freddy vs. Jason (CD1).avi
\Movies\Freddy vs Jason\Freddy vs. Jason (CD2).avi
\Movies\The French Connection\axial-tfc.a.avi
\Movies\The French Connection\axial-tfc.b.avi
\Movies\The Godfather 2\The Godfather Part 2 CD1.avi
\Movies\The Godfather 2\The Godfather Part 2 CD2.avi
\Movies\The Good Shepherd\osidvd-tgsdvdscra.avi
\Movies\The Good Shepherd\osidvd-tgsdvdscrb.avi
That should be enough, right? I can go through and list the whole bunch if I need to. On all of these except Batman Begins I actually have three entries: one for the correctly stacked item (that was there before I migrated to the Alpha 1), and two entries for each of the individual files.

I set all of mine to movie p1.ave movie p2.avi etc. Quite a logical format, yes?

@jmarshall: any input on why those filenames were working before but now aren't? I know I can add the regex manually, but I wanted to hold off in case y'all will be building it in.
Also, does anyone have any trouble importing the movie "9"? It doesn't show up in the library, even if I go to the folder and "scan for new content".

So, is there any way I can disable stacking in library mode? Every movie I have is a single file..
Thanks.
