Once the particular DVD folder is included in the "Watched" list, there shoudl be no problem.  MC will import and display the relevant file from within the DVD folder that will play the DVD.

Hi,

Go to: Tools/Add folder to library
then browse to the folder where your dvd is...
It should pick up the ifo file.
If you put an image (I call them folder.jpg) from the movie poster you should get a thumb and you're ready to go.


Cheers,


Theo

From your screenshot, you are seeing all the various DVD files, rather than just the one .IFO title file.

This is because you do not have the correct DVD folder structure.  You should have a directory for the particular DVD with a sub-directory called VIDEO_TS, and in VIDEO_TS, all the various DVD files.

MC will then look at this watched folder and only pick the one relevant file.

The directory shoudl look like this:-


And the files like this:-


Note that the "Folder.jpg" is the cover art stored by MC - you can add this later.
