These all have the correct format to nominate them as a series.

But they end up as 280 plus movies in the movies section, not as series in the shows section under videos class. ??

So, if I just rename the .MP4 to .MKV, and re import they show up in the SHOWS section....which is where I would like them of course?
not sure if they play or not yet with the .MKV rename.

Rather than convert all 280 plus of these from mp4 to MKV, is there a setting in JRiver that will sort this out and correctly allocate these TV series to the shows section of the Video category?

Thanks Guys. Sorry if I am a bit slow here and am asking a question that has been answered 100 times, But I cannot find it anywhere.

OK, so here is an answer
Rename all of the files to .mkv
Then they load into the library as TV shows.
JRiver seems to know that they are .MP4 and says so
They seem to play fine. Amazing

MKV files are containers. They can hold MP4 video streams, AVI video streams, etc. Media Center is playing the video file, not the container.
