VTS_01_1.VOB files not compiled to show one film file ?

Hi Guys,
I am looking for some advice or maybe it will need to be something written into a future update for Serviio.
Anyway here goes my problem!
I have ripped all my DVD (film) collection to Hard Drive storage.
So, all the video is in the same format as it was on the DVDs.
That is in the form of VOB files and support files. At the moment I am using a WD Digital Media Player to play these movies.
The reason for this is that the WD Player compiles all the individual VOB files together and presents to your screen one file in the title of the film and if you wish a thumb nail icon to go with it.
I can not get Serviio to do this! At the moment it is presenting me with all the individual VOB file and support files that were on the original DVD, to make things worse it is attaching the wrong thumb nail icon to the film.
As an example, I have the Film (2 Fast 2 Furious) made up of 8 VOB files and support files.
When it is streamed to my TV set I see all the VOB files thumb nail icon is of (Paddington Bear 2).
I tried fixing the thumb nail icon by adding to the folder name the (imdb tt2820852) number for (2 Fast 2 Furious)
With NO Luck.
Any advice welcome.
:cry:

Did you enable files stacking in the console? (note this is only available in the Evaluation and Pro editions)

Thanks for your answer
I am all new to using Serviio !
To answer your question YES in the console under the menu heading Delivery\Stacking I have a tick in the
Box Enable stacking.
Can you suggest anything else ?

that looks ok. What is the parent folder name?

Try to store it as described here: http://serviio.org/index.php?option=com ... 9&catid=10

Also, are you looking for the movie in the Movies category? I think it'll not stack up in the Folders category.

Thanks for the answer.
The full path is:
D:\FILMS\2 FAST 2 FURIOUS\
and all the VOB files to make up the dvd rip are inside 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS\
Each folder inside FILMS folder has its own folder which contains the ripped DVD
All together there are 700 DVD rips.
So there are 700 folders inside FILMS folder
No other folders are nested inside these folders.
I hope I explained that well enough . :D
I will go take a look at the link you sent me.
