Multiple CDs
« on: October 05, 2012, 07:40:05 pm »
I have finally found PVD for our growing digital movie and TV series collection. Great work guys!

Using v 1.0.2.3 on *Vista* Duh, sorry, Win 7

I have some movies that are two CDs, usually in separate folders. Being downright lazy I am hoping that someone has figured out an elegant way to link the two files. I tried episodes toolbar but can't really figure that one out. Is that the way to go and how do I link CD2 to CD1?

I still have to tidy up my TV series collection but generally they seem to be pretty good in PVD

Thanks

Dave

Welcome.

[File Path] can include any number of files, separated by a '|'. Play will wrap those in the playlist type specified in at Preferences > Miscellaneous > Playlist type. The outcome will depend on how your player handles that playlist type.

If that doesn't work, you can remux the files to one MKV container using MKVmerge.

I hate to be Captain Obvious, but wouldn't it be easier to just keep the two CDs in the same folder? Why separate them in the first place?
