AVTechMan 9 Posted 46 minutes ago Posted 46 minutes ago (edited) I haven't seen much on this but, as we know most cartoons are known based on series, season and individual episodes. However, I have alot of older cartoons, like Looney Tunes, Tex Avery and Droopy in which these were shown as theatrical shorts rather than episodes, so apparently TMDB is best over TVDB for these. Would it work to create a separate movie library to put the shorts into? Like for instance I already have a Movie library for feature length films, but now need to create another 'Movie' based library for the cartoon shorts, and would rather put it under Animation I suppose with mixed content so I could have all of the cartoons in one place. So something like this: \Movies\Tex Avery Collection\Bad Luck Blackie (1949).mkv Emby should be able to scrape this with TMDB and display correctly in the library. I believe alot of the Looney Tunes shorts should be done this was as well rather than forcing a season/episode layout that won't come out correctly. The Three Stooges are like this too, though there is a season/episode format with TVDB, they were also originally released as individual movie shorts and should probably be renamed that way similar to the cartoons. Does this sound about right? How about those that have done these particular shows? I have alot of LT and Tex cartoons I have yet to rip from my discs because of figuring out the file structure for these. Edited 39 minutes ago by AVTechMan
