Post IMDb search plugin - how to identify the movies
Hi,

I'm pretty excited for the YAMJ plugin and since I have quite some movies I would like to know how exactly the plugin will identify the movies?
Do I need to have one NFO-File for each movie in a folder? What do I need to put into that file? What about movies in AVCHD or BD folder structure?

THX

you may want to look at the wiki, http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/w/list especially the nfo part http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/NFO_Files

And I am too excited ;)

Check out the file naming convention. I tried executing yamj and it generated the files correctly

YAMJ has been developed to try an minimise the renaming of files, however there are some conventions that should be followed to maximise your "hit rate".

Read this wiki page for more information: http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/FileNaming

However, generally speaking, the title from the IMDb page (including the year) is sufficient for YAMJ to find it.

Yeap. Referred to this last weekend while doing a one time effort of renaming. Pretty cool!

Can YAMJ differentiate between an SD and HD movie? I like to have a Bluray cover on my HD rips.

Thanks

David

Thats good, so no need to name an HD file any differently to an SD file.

No, but you can add in tags like the source of the file (BluRay, Dvd, etc.) and skins can display this too.
These can also be set in a NFO file which is compatible with the XBMC format.

Is it correct for yamj if i have a folder structure like this:

movies\the dark knight\the dark knight (2009).mkv
movies\the dark knight\the dark knight (2009).srt
movies\300\300 (2009).mkv
movies\300\300 (2009).srt

Or do i have to place the mkv/srt directly under movies?

And how does it work if you have for example this:

movies/watchmen/watchmen/bdmv/stream/00116 and a lot more m2ts files in here.
Do i rename the biggest m2ts file in here watchmen (2009)?
So i will get movies/watchmen/watchmen/bdmv/stream/watchmen (2009)

How far does yamj look into a folder structure?
