Stacking movies with different names
#1
Wink 
Hi!
I've been trying to manually stack movies with different names for hours now but without success. :mad:

Let's say I got a collection of short movies, for instance:
part1 - abc.mkv
part2 - def.mkv
...

regexp expressions in advancedsettings.xml :
<
PHP Code:
<regexp>(.*?)([ _.-]*(?:cd|dvd|p(?:ar)?t|dis[ck]|d)[ _.-]*[0-9]+)(.*?)(\.[^.]+)$</regexp
don't work.

I also tried with a movie.nfo in the folder, XBMC retrieved the name in the nfo but generates many entries with the same name in the library:

Code:
02:44:28 T:4368 M:2756206592   DEBUG: VideoInfoScanner: Scanning dir 'E:\Movies\Shorts Collection\' as not in the database

Is there a way to force xbmc fo stack these items?

Thanks! Smile

I'd say that's what Movie Sets are for: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/33873/con...ovie-sets/
