Not all DVD rips showing up on MrMC

Hi,

Not sure I am in the right group, however my issue is that not all my DVD's (running from a NAS) are showing up on MR MC.

Typically it appears that the DVD's I have made myself or have been made for me (eg home movie or VHS conversions) do not appear on MRMC.

I haver added these DVD files like all other files by adding the location to MrMC.

I would note the following:
- The folder structure in these homemade DVD's is the same as a normal store purchased DVD (ie it has in the Video_ts folder with a video_TS.ifo and a Video_ts.vob file).
- If I navigate to the folder of the home dvd - I can locate or play that dvd fine.

Any assistance would be much appreciated

(BTW this is so great to have DVD Folders working - now apple need to provide API's for their Apple TV App)

Kind regards,
Markus

are you trying to add those home videos into library? that will not be possible as the library is crated from the commercial movies located on IMDB/tmdb.

you can access all your home movies by going to Sources tab and adding a new source that points to the folder you keep your home movies in and make sure you don't set any content to it, that way it will be treated as file source and not as library source(entry)

I am testing MrMC to connect to an Emby server, all movies play well but movies that have a video_ts root based on vob files don't show in the library, how can I get to show in the library?

I have added the folder where the DVD rips are located, using the Add Source/Movies entry, and I can play them back succesfully, so Kudos for that.
Is there a way that I can add those movies in the single "Movies" view I get from connecting to Emby? They are now in two different places, and I would really like them to be in the same place.
