Thanks, Jim.  I guess now I have to decide whether to sort many hundreds of pdf files into the same directories as their related albums.

It seems like this kind of functionality (plus that provided by "view extras") would be a natural for Spotlight - gathering together info from multiple sources (external as well as the local filesystem(s)) for any individual search.

Thanks

JimH:
I may move this to a new thread. Are the files all stored in one place but the names are related to the media file?

ncjay:
Yes, they're all in (parent path)/iTunes/iTunes Media/Documents and the individual file names are either [ARTIST] - [ALBUM NAME].pdf or, in the case of Various Artists albums, just [ALBUM NAME].pdf.

The matching album directories are in (parent path)/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/ and are either [ARTIST]/[ARTIST - ALBUM NAME] or, in the case of Various Artists albums, Compilations/[ALBUM NAME]/ .

All are already in my JRiver library, under Documents (the pdfs) and Audio (the albums).

By the way, I made a clean break from iTunes over a year ago.  The directory names are just legacy names :)


Thanks
ncjay

MC 30.0.27 uses the TMDB series ID for lookup if that tag is set.  Note that it still only uses the series name when matching for playback so you could get some extra episodes from a series with the same name.

It now also searches with a leading 0 for season and episode matches (e.g. "1" and "01").

elprice7345:
Great news!

I'll test as soon as that version is available.
