Strange Files/Titles Appearing

Firstly, nice program. Streamed transcoded video content over WiFi with no stutter, which is a big plus.

The strange thing is, I'm getting weird files showing up that are not even on my computer. I have images of adult movie covers popping up in my Video folder when no kind of content like that is on my PC :shock:

Also, I have titles showing up as Star Wars, but when I open them, I discover they are the Chappelle Show files that I ripped from DVD myself. I don't have any kind of Star Wars tags on my files or S.W. content on my PC.

Win 7 64b
to Sony PS3

Serviio PRO v 1.4.1.2 Evaluation License (exp in 14 days)

Thanks for any insight on the foreign files popping up.

It's just incorrect metadata, caused by incorrectly named files (for the way Serviio tries to parse them). You can either turn metadata off (if you're happy to just use file names when browsing the content), or rename the identified files according to http://serviio.org/index.php?option=com ... icle&id=12

You can also use this tool to help you with the rename: http://www.filebot.net/

Thanks a lot. I figured my shows didn't magically turn into Star Wars movies :lol:
