Did you set up Auto Import?  It's explained in the wiki.

Yes I use auto import to do this but some movies go in the documents section and some movies are not tagged as movie. I want to force all iso and mkv to data type and movie media sub type

If, for example, you put all movies in a directory \Movies\, and Auto Import is set to look in that directory, then edit the settings for that directory in Auto Import setup and add records in the "Apply these tags (optional)" section.

[Media Type]=Video
[Media Sub Type]=Movie


Done.

If you don't want everything in the auto import directory to be [Media Type]=Video, [Media Sub Type]=Movie, then you can use these expressions to apply the rules to iso's only.

[Media Type]=If(IsEqual([File Type],iso,8),Video,[Media Type])

[Media Sub Type]=If(IsEqual([File Type],iso,8),Movie,[Media Sub Type])

I wrote that in expression notation.

What you actually do in the dialogue is select a field: Media Type
Enter a value below: Video
