I have discovered this software to automatically rename your files after downloading for something that XBMC will recognize when it scrapes for movies or tv shows.  Actually this is more helpful in TV shows downloaded will multiple episodes. Try it!  ;)

Hit or miss naman.  Eto lang para sa mga pasaway na encoders. Used this yesterday when I downloaded Justice League Unlimited for my son.  There were around 90+ episodes in one folder and the encoder just labelled them as e01-93.  I didn't know it was divided into 5 seasons pala.  This came in handy.  ;)

Another freeware I discovered is Bulk Rename Utility. I noticed that all of my previous HDDs have saved fanart as moviename-fanart.jpg and the recent Frodo release reads the fanarts as fanart.jpg.  Sometimes di lumalabas ang fanarts with the previous names so with the above software, it made life easier.  ;D

I gave up on Eventghost but found this program to map any PC remote to do whatever you desire with its buttons....

LM Remote Keymap

I was able to map the buttons of my MCE remote to do some functions of XBMC which needed a keyboard.  O0

What's the difference between WASAPI HDMI and Direct Sound HDMI in the Audio settings? I was using WASAPI the whole time until I encountered no sound from Ultimate Spiderman with AC3 audio.  I tried other files that I played before--DTS, DTS-HDMA and with no problems.  I just switched the audio settings to Direct Sound HDMI and ok na.  Does this have something to do with Frodo as this is the first time I encountered no sound with a video file in WASAPI?

Try to put them in one folder.  Tapos label mo nalang each file...name.of.movie.part.1.mkv, name.of.movie.part.2.mkv.  What particular titles doc?

Based on IMDB which most probably is the source of your scraper, there is:

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (2011)
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 (2012)

Put the video files separately in folders labelled exactly as the titles above.  Also rename your movie files in their respective folders the same name as the folder title and then the file extension i.e.

The.Twilight.Saga.Breaking.Dawn.Part.1.2011.mkv
The.Twilight.Saga.Breaking.Dawn.Part.2.2012.mkv

This way, XBMC would be able to identify your videos correctly.

Desktop sir.  Unless you choose to save your library to a certain directory or per movie folder.

@ nerveblocker..

Salamat sa reply. So pwede kong palitan ung location kung san nya e-save ung cover arts? Sa situation ko pwedeng sa NAS ko?

Yung set-up ko kse bale is dun ko sa laptop ko install ung XBMC and Movies ko sa NAS ko.
And naka ssd lang ung laptop ko na 128gb lang ung size kaya mas magandang dun na lang sa NAS ma-save ung mga ma-download na mga cover art..

Keema mas maganda kung ang ginamit mo ay mediacompanion.
Yung mga movies mo na naka save sa NAS, dun pupunta lahat ng movie arts mo. Fully compatible sa XBMC...
Try mo kung pwede sa Mac...

Quick one. Can you boot with XBMC using Windows? I mean when turning on the PC you go directly to XBMC instead of your desktop? parang Openelec or XBMcrapu. Tried the linux route and gave up. ang hirap. It's basically to lessen the clutter of having a KBM and just use the iphone app at the same time torrent running on the background.
That awkward moment when I'm drunk and you're still ugly.

Just add XBMC to the Startup Folder.  Problem is you will still be passing thru your desktop before XBMC starts.
