Hello

Here's my problem:
I've installed tellico, and I would like to create a video collection (I've got a video folder on my brother). I proceed like this:
- create a new video collection
- and try to import from a folder (the folder that contains my movies).
But I can't "import from a folder" in the video collection I've created: the only option is to replace in a new collection.

Thanks for your help. :)

Unfortunately, I've not implemented a way of scanning a file folder and creating a video collection. I couldn't find a useful way of extracting metadata from video files. There doesn't seem to be an equivalent of audio file metadata for video files...maybe I need to revisit that and see if there's a way to do it.

If you're using a KDE desktop, you might want to give Bangarang a shot, http://bangarangkde.wordpress.com. Nepomuk by itself, along with a metadata extractor, appears useful as well: http://yuenhoe.com/blog/2012/10/anime-a ... extractor/
