Title: [Feature Request] Store movie Sidecar and .jpg files in a separate folder
Post by: jkauff on March 21, 2018, 05:21:42 am

These days I store most of my movies as single MKV files instead of keeping the DVD or Blu-Ray disc file structure. This results in every MKV file having a corresponding Sidecar .xml file and .jpg file in the folder, which really clutters it up when viewing the folder in Windows' File Explorer.

Could we have an option in MC24 to store these files in a sub-folder (preferably hidden)?

Mux the jpeg file and any other files into the mkv as attachments. Use mkv tags and you probably won’t need sidecar xml files. Mkvtoolnix GUI is a program some use to work with mkv.

Interesting idea, but then MC wouldn't be able to do a Thumbnails view of the list.
