How to name my Movies?!

Hallo,
after installation i fill in my resources and let serviio check the meta data online.

The most movies work fine but if i have " compilation" of movies it dont get it right.

Example:
I have : Rambo 1, Rambo 2 and Rambo IV after checking in directory "titles" the are just Rambo and Rambo. It seems that Rambo IV ( beforehand i named it Rambo 4) isnt there and the other ones are the same with the same picture. When i start its correct movie but one is missing and these two are renamed. Checking in Files directory i have added on my tv the file is there...There are many of these linke Harry Potter, The fast and the furious, Die Hard...
what can / must i do to correct it
Aliens is much worser...there ist one movie with about 6 hours...

Second one is if i have one Movie with two cds. Serviio didnt get this too.
Exaple sphere cd 1, sphere cd 2...
how can i make sphere including these two cds?
thank you for help

Add the year to the end to give 'Movie (1990)' Also check against themoviedb.com as that is what serviio looks up against


For movies with multiple parts viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5450

Re: How to name my Movies?!

you will have to name them as follows:

First Blood (1982)
Rambo First Blood Part II (1985)
Rambo III (1988)
Rambo (2008)

As for multiple discs, you could check the link will gave you above. Or as I prefer use VirtualDub (or similar, I happen to use VirtualDubMod more often then not since it can handle VBR audio) to join the two discs into one. Lots of tutorials with a google search.
