You can disable Sidecar files in MC Options.

Thanks! They don't bother me as they are incredibly small and who knows they might be needed in the future. :)
As for that Media Sub-type that you mentioned, is it best that I set my automatic importing with a rule to fill that Tag depending on the folder where the mkv resides? I have "movies" folders but I have also "Concert" and I was thinking of a way to separate those in a clear manner on my Theater View...
zybex:
Yes, Import rules are the way to go.

Ok, I've set those on the Import configuration already so I'm covered for future imports but what about the current ones? What is the quickest way to force Media Sub Type = Movies on all the files I've imported already?
zybex:
Go to Video->Files
select all files
open the Tag Editor panel (ALT+Enter)
find the Media Sub Type tag
set it to Movie

Thanks. I've done that already and am slowly getting things organized.
I was even able to import my concerts as well for which I used Media Sub Type = Concerts.
However I found an issue when I was going to import my Series as there is no pre-defined type "Series". I saw only these 3: Movie, Concert and TV Show.
So, I decided to use a Custom one and wrote "Series" but when I was about to design my new Library View for "Series" I found it was not possible to define in rules for File Display such value of Media Sub Type = Series.
Even if I force it manually, I can't catch any file.
A bit frustrated I opted to write an exclusion rule: Media Sub Type is not Movie AND Media Sub Type is not Concert.
As cumbersome as this is it works but then I get to another obstacle when I'm trying to use Get Movie and TV Info! It says this option cannot be used bla bla bla.
So, the question I have is: How should I import my Series?
The structure I currently have on my shared folders is the following:
Series/Westworld/S01/S01E01.mkv
Series/Westworld/S01/S01E02.mkv
Series/Westworld/S01/S01E03.mkv
...
Series/Westworld/S01/S01E10.mkv
Series/Westworld/S02/S01E01.mkv
etc
