Videos/clips?

Asked by krank23

Entertainer splits my movie files into "Video clips" and "movies". Why is this?

And wouldn't it be great with support for multi-file movies? These days, a lot of movies are, for one reason or another, split into 2 or more 6-700mb avi's... The ability to play them as one large one would be great...

krank23, I think the answer has to do with naming conventions and IMDb. I think that the indexer looks for video files that match a certain filename pattern. Based on that information, Entertainer checks the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) for any information that it can find. I think anything that it can figure out would be put in the movies section, otherwise, I believe it would end up in the video clips.

Multi-file movie playing would be a cool thing. I'll create another wishlist bug to make sure that gets considered eventually.

Can you help with this problem?
