Video Import Questions

Post by Andulien »

I've been using MM extensively for Music so far, but would like to start importing my Videos now as well.
My Videos are sorted in a certain way (filename, folder structure) and would like to exclude them from the auto-organizing feature of MM. I tried the Auto-Organizing with Videos before, but it completely messed them up.

Is there a way to leave the Auto-Organize on for Music, and turn it off for Video Import, so that my file and folder structure is kept for Videos?

Thanks for the help.

Yes, you can configure auto-organize rules at Options > Auto-organize. Just set your rule to only include the "Music" collection.

Sweet thanks for the quick reply. That worked perfectly. Completely forgot to set the Collection Rules on Music.

If you don't mind, I had two more questions:
1. Is there a way to let Videos automatically start in Fullscreen mode upon play?
2. Will there be a consideration in the future to Add a Node called Movies, as there is currently only one for Series. Basically like a subcategory for Video (Series, Movies)?

Thanks for the quick Answer :)

2) Movies isn't a field whereas Series is. You may want to create a separate Collection for Movies (what I do based on Path criteria).

Hi Lowlander,

thanks for the answer :) Figured out how to set the path criteria and all. Looking nice so far. Thanks again.
