Saving artwork and metadata


Recommended Posts

Posted

Not sure if this just starting happening, but I probably never noticed or if it is by design. I have "Save artwork and metadata into media folders" unchecked because I have a separate file structure for metadata and images. Now it does not save the metadata info or images for movies into the media folders, which is correct. But since adding music, I am noticing it is saving the images into the media folders (for music only), but not the xml files. Is this a bug or by design? I thought unchecking "Save artwork and metadata into media folders" included music. Just wondering.

 

Thanks

can you give an example?

no problem, I have "Save artwork and metadata into media folders" unchecked. So all my metadata info is saved under:

 

D:\Metadata_Full_System

D:\Metadata_Full_System\Cache

D:\Metadata_Full_System\Images

D:\Metadata_Full_System\Metadata

D:\Metadata_Full_System\Temp

 

All the movie info (and TV Shows) is saving fine into these folders. I did it this way because I was having a permissions issue with using the Roaming folder under users. Again, everything for movies (and newly added movies) is working fine, images, xml's, etc. are saving into these folders.

 

Music on the other hand is saving the xml's into the proper file structure as listed above, but the images are going into my music folders per artist instead of the file structure above. 

 

D:\Movies

D:\Music\3 Doors Down\*.jpg

D:\TV Shows

 

I think I explained this correctly, let me know if I am still not explaining correctly.

 

Thanks
