Naming convention for 3D movies (HSBS)

[steve1977 67]

I am currently naming my 2D movies as follows:

 

\Moviename (year) [1080p bluray]\

\Moviename (year) [1080p bluray]\Moviename (year).mkv

\Moviename (year) [1080p bluray]\Moviename (year).nfo

etc.

 

When adding 3D-movies (encoded as HSBS in mkv), how does MBS expect me to name the folder and movie file that it automatically sets the "HSBS" in the NFO file / in MBS.

 

Thanks in advance!!!

3D Videos

Any video can be marked as 3D by placing one of the following tags within the filename:

• [fsbs] - Full side by side
• [ftab] - Full top and bottom
• [hsbs] - Half side by side
• [htab] - Half top and bottom

This will indicate the 3D format, which will be needed when streaming video and extracting images. The MB2 conventions of [3d] and [sbs3d] are still supported and will default to HSBS.

Alternatively this can be done by editing metadata within the server dashboard.

Thanks, this is helpful. Nothing to be added to the folder name, but just file name?

Either one should work.

What about if I name it [ 3D HSBS ] (with the spaces before and after the []. I am checking as this would allow me to also support the XBMC naming convention (http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=3D). Thanks!

That would be great. From what you see from the link, the XBMC conventions are fairly complex and allow a zillion of different options to comply. Would this stil be doable? Very much appreciated!!!

Yes. Can you find our KB entry here in the forum on 3D and add this?
