Video Archive mis-names recordings

[jbyram2]

Is there a way to make video archive display the file name for recorded videos, instead of the "actual name" of the video?

I have some ripped workout DVDs, part of a 3 CD set. Video archiver names them all the same, which makes it hard to pick which one I want!

Usually it's correct, but sometimes it's, well , INVENTIVE about what it picks...An episode of the TV comedy "Related" wound up being called a thriller "Blood Related", with a suitablly thrilling icon..:o

You can use the DVD Editor utility to rename any files found in your dvd directories. As to the other, the video archiver will not look up descriptions for things in your recordings directories, only in your DVD directories (as specified in the plug-in configuration). If it can't find a description for a recording in the database it will use the file name if it is in the format <show name>_YYYYMMDD_SSSSEEEE then I beleive it will show the <show name> part as the name in the list.

Thanks, Jeff. I'll look again at which directory I've called out for DVDs.
