kingy444 108 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I have an issue in that all TV Episodes have now had a -poster.jpg file created in the same directory as the video file. I prefer all the metadata to be stored in the metadata directory for each show so that video files are more presentable. (personal preference)I am happy to have a few images in the same folder but prefer just a few not one for every episode. Something like: Season 1 - metadata <-- All metadata in here - - Series.S01.E01...Episode.Name.jpg - - Series.S01.E01...Episode.Name.xml - - Series.S01.E02...Episode.Name.jpg - - Series.S01.E02...Episode.Name.xml - - Series.S01.E03...Episode.Name.jpg - - Series.S01.E03...Episode.Name.xml - backdrop.jpg - backdrop1.jpg - backdrop2.jpg - banner.jpg - folder.jpg - Series.S01.E01...Episode.Name.mp4 - Series.S01.E02...Episode.Name.mp4 - Series.S01.E03...Episode.Name.mp4 I cannot turn this off as under 'Episodes' on the Metadata section of the server settings there is no selection for poster. only primary images. I have two questions: 1. Can I delete the -posters and if so what will be the effect/consequence? 2. How can I disable redownloading of these (or can they be instead placed in the metadata folder) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14925 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 poster == primary image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingy444 108 Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 Then why when I mavigate to am episode and compare the -poster and the metadata image is the one in metadata the only one being picked up. same thing if I go to edit an epiaode in mediabrowser and look under images. -poster isnt even recognised anywhere ? I dont mind having the extra picture but can they be moved to the mwtadata folder if they are required ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8296 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I occasionally get this with a race between MCM and MBS. I just delete them occasionally when I notice them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingy444 108 Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 I kust purely use mbs now. I can script the deletion. But I would prefer them just srored with the other metadata Is a change like this hard ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
