Duplicate file names

Hi all

I have just installed Serviio on a HP MediaSmart EX475, and have the problem that in the past I used to RIP entire DVD's with menu's and subtitles to individual folders. I then placed a folder.jpg with the DVD cover art to each folder.

The problem I have is that Serviio lists all the individual vob files as separate films so I have on average 6-15 duplicate images in each folder and have to work out what file to play (usually the first 1GB file).

Is there another way to get Serviio to only list the movies, not the files (all the display options show the same issue).

I have 420+ DVD's ripped onto the server.


Kind regards


James

I think the next version of Serviio may cover this, but Zip could answer that for sure.
