I am a confessed newb with SMP so please bare with me
My config is as follows:
Dlink NAS with 4TB (1.5TB videos, 500 GB of TV Shows, 500GB of music albums and about 200GB of photos. Â
Wired SMP via gigaethernet to the NAS via a giga router/giga switch.
My folder structure on the NAS is as follows:
VIDEO
/ Kids
/ / Â Movie name folder (30 Minutes or Less [2011.DVDRIp.Xvid])
/ / / Movie file (Can sometimes be an avi, cd1/cd2 folder combo, mkv, iso, VOB) ~ naming convention will typically match folder name ~~ Â This is the case for all movie folders/files)
/ Movies
/ / Â Movie name folderÂ
/ / / Movie file (Can sometimes be an avi, cd1/cd2 folder combo, mkv, iso, VOB)
/ Personal
/ / Â Movie name folder
/ / / Movie file (Can sometimes be an avi, cd1/cd2 folder combo, mkv, iso, VOB)
/ OtherÂ
/ / Â Movie name folder
/ / / Movie file (Can sometimes be an avi, cd1/cd2 folder combo, mkv, iso, VOB)
Thumbs, metadata, etc… were all scraped via the app.  I however get the feeling that there is more to it than that for SMP, however am struggling on where to find the details surrounding this.  I do get the thumbs for most of the movies, however i get no data on the movie (Plot, cast, etc…).  The fields are there for the data but they are blank.  Is my naming convention correct?  I hear of 3rd party apps like thumbgen, etc… What are these?  Is there more that i have to do than simply allow the smp scraper pick up the thumbs/data?
For TV Shows, my naming convention is as follows:
TV Shows\Breaking Bad\Season 2\Breaking Bad.s02e01
For this particular show, i get the details however ALL the thumbs are the same and i do not get any of the banners. Â BTW, this was being done under Mojo and will be reverting back to default to see what happens (As an aside, if i flip back and forth between themes, do I need to clean any lingering files associated to the previous theme???
I am just getting into the music section. Â For it, my folder structure is as follows:
Audio\Compilations
Audio\Country
Audio\Comedies
Audio\Scores
Audio\Soundtracks
Audio\ROCK\H\Heart (1976, 160k) - Dreamboat Annie\01 - Magic Man.mp3
I just setup a media manager file for the Audio folder.  It is currently as i type this compiling…  Am not sure if i am going to run into problems as there are over 4000 complete albums (Folders)…
