How do I deal with multi-disc DVD's in the Video Library?

I've searched the forums and elsewhere online, but I can't seem to find a good answer to this.

I'm running the latest version of SageTV and SageMC. I use DVD Profiler to manage my ripped DVD library and I have Sage configured to be able to import the XML and image information for my DVD's.

The problem is this: I have a lot of multi-disc sets. Things that have menus that I want to keep and such. DVD Profiler tracks how many discs are present for each disc, but I can't figure out how to make the Video Library aware of multiple discs.

Does anyone know how to deal with this? (I don't want to be told to re-rip the multiple discs into one disc. That won't work for series that have 6 discs or anything that I want to keep the menus on.)

I use DVD Shrink to merge my multi disks together into a single file. As I only have the main movies I'm nots sure how it handels menus.

Here's how I handle it on my system:

Three's Company (Yes I absolutely love this show!!)
|..Season 1
|......Disk 1
|.........VIDEO_TS
|.........AUDIO_TS
|..Season 2
|......Disk 1
|.........VIDEO_TS
|.........AUDIO_TS
|......Disk 2
|.........VIDEO_TS
|.........AUDIO_TS
|......Disk 3
|.........VIDEO_TS
|.........AUDIO_TS
|......Disk 4
|.........VIDEO_TS
|.........AUDIO_TS


For each season I take a "folder.jpg" image of the specific season (Thanks Amazon), and put it in every sub folder.

What picture do you put in the folder: Three's Company
Is it a generic picture and does Sage pick it up?

I have the following folder structure. I put a generic kids picture: folder.jpg in the Kids folder but it always shows the first pic in the subfolders (IE: AFV). Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Kids (folder.jpg - generic kids pic)
AFV (folder.jpg - AFV picture This is what shows up for the kids folder!)
Season 1
Disc 1
VIDEO_TS
Disc 2
VIDEO_TS
Season 2
Disc 1
VIDEO_TS
Disc 2
VIDEO_TS
Barnyard
VIDEO_TS

Thanks,
Chris
