Trying to rip my Schindler's List, which is on 2 discs.


With 2 MKV files in the folder, MediaBrowser does not download the metadata. With a single MKV file in there, the metadata is good.


Anyone know how to best handle this situation?

I just put the in that same folder and MB/WMC will start playing the other file automatically when the first ends. From another site:

If you call them Moviename Part 1 and Moviename Part 2 and put them in the movie directory Media Browser will just play them sequentially. You just press play or resume as usual. Apart from a slight hiccup when it changes file you won't notice.

My problem is not necessarily playback related, just I'm not seeing any of the metadata artwork.

probably the easiest way is to use mkvmerge to create 1 mkv out of both files. add the first file, then use the append button to add the second, then mux them into a single mkv.

Thanks, that worked great. You know, I had tried that program but in my haste I hit "Add" to attach the 2nd MKV and when the resulting MKV ended prematurely I assumed it didn't work. User error.

Heh, that would make about a 60gb MKV file for my LotR bluray rips. Eeek.
