Multiple versions of a movie with filename different than the folder

[fneves 6]

Hello!

 

Is it possible to enhance the multiple versions when the filename is different than the folder?

 

I already have my movies structured and emby detects them just fine, but I don't want to rename the files because it helps finding subtitles.

 

Eg:

 

Folder:

• The Big Sick (2017)

Files:

• The.Big.Sick.2017.BluRay.1080p.DTS.x264-CHD.mkv - Original.strm
• The.Big.Sick.2017.BluRay.1080p.DTS.x264-CHD.mkv - 1080p.strm
• The.Big.Sick.2017.BluRay.1080p.DTS.x264-CHD.mkv - 720p.strm
• The.Big.Sick.2017.BluRay.1080p.DTS.x264-CHD.mkv - 420p.strm

In this case Emby detects 4 movies, and it's working as intended, but renaming all my movie files would make finding subtitles rather diffcult.

 

Perhaps when there's X files inside a movie folder all with the same name except the "- name", it could merge them together too?

 

Thanks!

It's possible for the future, thanks.

Thank you!

Great suggestion! Also have similar issues where rename breaks and hardens subtitle management and is time consuming depending on library size. +1

Any chance this gets implemented in a near future?

I can't offer an ETA but it's a good idea for the future. Thanks.

Hey @@Luke!

Any news on this now that we have multiple resolutions for TVShows?

Thanks!
