Feature Request for Movie Library

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.

I was wondering in the next update if it would be possible for the movie library to search for .mp4 files as well as video ts, or if there would be a way for the user to personalize what type of movie files it would search for.

Thanks

Edit: Busy: signal is now gone and works amazinly well!!! It searches all of my externals and the internal and puts them in alpha order and it is amazing!

With that some enhancements could come from a larger amount of screen shown to do this, larger text so it would be easier to read further away, as well as displaying longer titles.

This is a huge improvement (now if you could add .avi, and .mp4 to a possibily for spotlight to search for under VLC that would be a huge improvement and make the mac media center that much closer to be being perfect.

Thanks for all of your hard work on making this great product

Can I also add DivX/AVI/MOV files to the built-in movie library and not just VIDEO_TS folders? (FAQ015E0200)
Yes. All you need to do is to install VLC and organize your files in a given folder structure. It's also possible to add covers then. If, for example, you want to add the file MyMovie.avi, the folder structure should look like this:
```
Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie.avi
Title of my movie/File with Cover.jpg
```
You can add movies that are split up into several files the same way. The folder structure then looks like this:
```
Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie part 1.avi
Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie part 2.avi
Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie part 3.avi
Title of my movie/File with Cover.jpg
```
The names of the movie- and coverfiles are freely choosable - you only need to make sure the suffix fits the format of the file. Supported formats for cover files include JPEG, PNG and GIF.

In Remote Buddy's menu, you can then start playback of your movies complete with existing covers in the context menu of the VLC Behaviour.
