create new library, what to choose

[Davey's 12]

Hi,

When creating a Library youll first need to choose a content type

What are the difference between Videos home video & photos, movies and mixed content

 

 

For our child we have some sesamstreet (short) videos, but it only plays 1 item a time

do I need to choose "TV shows as content type" for that kind of files?

so it does play next item in folder automaticly

I do also have a folder with 'concerts and performances' (video)

and a folder with 'music video' (clips)

Home Video and photo has not metadata providers like movies or mixed.

Movies only allows that specific content type

Mix allows Movies or Series (in proper structure)

What do you mean?  TV Show are a series of episodes.

There's very little difference nowadays between many of these content types now that more features are crossing over between them. I would just pick the one that sounds closest to the content that you're adding.

I'd like my musicvideos handled as tvshows or in other words.. Automatically play next item

Is there a setting i can change how to handle folder structure?

Hi, try just using Play All on a folder of music videos.
