Question about file naming...
#1
Sorry if this is the wrong forum... Not sure if this is a bug or meant to be so I figured I would post it here... Or perhaps I am just an idiot who is missing something Smile

My problem is that I had my files all named normal... IE "The Hive" "The One" etc etc... And in xbmc it would skip "The" and the movies would be under H and O respectively... Well I used a media manager to rename the folders and it now is as such... "The Hive (2008)" "The One (2001)"... and now the files are found under T for The and not H for Hive or O for One... Anyone know if I am missing something simple here/have any advice?

Thanks in advance!

Is that a different setting than in System -> Settings -> File Lists "Ignore articles when sorting (e.g. "the") cause that is turned on Smile Sorry... forgot to mention... I was more thinking that since I had the year on the end, it wasn't correctly parsing it? idk...

Thanks again!

Use this technique (sort) and sort them whereever yo want. If you want them at H & O, sort them to Hive and O.
