Movie Extras Showing in Library

[Spaceboy 2573]

Hi, i have found that if you have a movie with two copies in the same folder, for example the 2d and 3d versions of the same film, and some movie extras in a subfolder "extras", the extra videos are shown within the movie library.

 

folder structure:

 

movies\gravity\gravity [hsbs].mkv

movies\gravity\gravity.mkv

movies\gravity\extras\extra 1.mkv

movies\gravity\extras\extra 2.mkv

 

extra 1 and extra 2 show up as movies. i see this over about 5 different movies where i have this combination

hi, could this be acknowledged at least. its fairly easy to replicate.

now based on the lack of response i'm not clear on whether this is just me. and we wonder why people hesitate on reporting issues?

i'm guessing it's because the movie names are not using the naming convention for multi-version movies

ok, i find the wiki a little unclear here. i've now followed the recommended naming structure for 3d movies (thank you bulk renamer) but the advice seems to conflict with the page you link to, particularly around the use of the hyphen to separate movie name and resolution, does this also apply to movie name and 3d tag?

 

so can i use

 

the lego movie (2014)\the lego movie (2014).mkv

the lego movie (2014)\the lego movie (2014).3d.hsbs.mkv

 

or do i need 

 

the lego movie (2014)\the lego movie (2014) -1080p.mkv

the lego movie (2014)\the lego movie (2014) -.3d.hsbs.mkv

 

or one from the top and one from the bottom?

 

i think adding a 3d example to the multi resolution part of the wiki would help significantly

sorry for the necro...

 

But it would be nice if there was parity with how plex handles this:

Or confirmation/clarification of how extras are parsed.

I have reviewed this and it works. I have added examples to both the multi-version naming guide, found here:

 

https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Movie-naming

 

And also to the 3D naming guide, found here:

I  am using both Plex and Emby and I am now using an "extras" folder for Emby and just so Plex doesn't see it I am using a .plexignore file so Plex ignores any directory named "extras". Not a perfect solution but it at least keeps things somewhat organized/uncluttered.
