One way to do it is to organize your recordings into recording groups. You
can have one for "series" (or just "default") and another for "movies". But
it's a manual process--you have to sort them yourself. However, you can set
it up in the recording rule so that new recordings go to the desired group.
Use the %U format argument to mythlink to create separate directories for
your recording groups.
