Is this correct naming scheme of Bonus Disc?

I just bought a few bluray movies recently with bonus content on separate discs. After reading various wiki's I still can't get emby to display / recognize bonus discs so I'm wondering if there is something wrong with this folder naming:

 

/Movies

    /Movie A (2017)

         /BDMV

         /extras/BDMV

 

The movie in the /BDMV path is recognized as the main movie but the extra disc doesn't seem to come up as an option. Should I have revised the above to:

 

/Movies

    /Movie A (2017)

         /Disc 1/BDMV

         /Disc 2/extras/BDMV

 

If I understood correctly the second method above would be incorrect because the movie itself is not split into two discs so I'm not sure why it still doesn't work.

If you are naming the folder bdmv, then both are wrong. If bdmv represents file level then the first option has always worked for me.

Yes the first /BDMV represents the "file level" where the movie is located, as in:

 

/Movies

    /Movie A (2017)

         /BDMV

 

But the bonus content is on a separate disc, which prompts me to think I need to specify /extras in front of the 2nd /BDMV file level folder

Right now only video files are supported within the /extras folder.

any suggestions what to do for bonus content located on other discs? These are small pieces of files so it's impractical / inefficient to turn them into multiple video files.

I guess they would have to be separate titles in the library. I would suggest checking out makemkv. Extraction is full quality and just takes a few clicks per disc.
