dealing with multiple files for a single movie?

Postby englishpremier on Sat Jul 30, 2005 4:21 pm

I have setup my database in dvd profiler and that works great with the dvds i have on my hard drive. However rather than taking up over 4gig per movie i have converted many of my discs to xvid/divx format.

Everythig is fine with shorter movies, but my longer movies like North by northwest (2hrs10mins) etc.. are ripped across multiple 700mb files.

Obviously when i start playback in xlobby, only the 1st file of the movie will play.

Is there anyway to have a movie spread out over 2 or 3 files and have it play back the whole thing in xlobby?

Yes it is

I do that all the time with Zoomplayer

put the movie in a folder and name the files like this
Gone In 60 Seconds cd1.avi
Gone In 60 Seconds cd2.avi
