I was thinking of doing this with some of the series I've been recording.
When I ripped a series DVD, I used the filename Series_SeasonxEpisode.mkv
and MythVideo picked up the metadata just fine.

Just looking at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mythlink.pl and I don't see a
way to put the Season/Episode numbers in when I run it on Recordings. Will
MythVideo be able to find the metadata just based on Series and Subtitle?

Also...still kinda new at the symlink thing...if I move the files from the
Recording group to the Video group, don't the symlinks break? Or is there a
special command to do this?

Thanks.
