Individual folders per show?

[David81]

Hello there SageTV experts. I'm hoping that Sage can do one "simple" thing for me.

Is there any way that Sage can record shows to their own individual folder?

This would really help my efforts to integrate Sage recordings with my XBMC library.

Thanks much.

unfortunately I don't know of any way to do this but i second the option... it would be great

Not to interject my own wishlist into your thread, I would like the file name to include season and episode number (scraped from epguides.com or something similar). The filename would be

Showname-SXXEYY-EpisodeName-ShowIdNum.ext

Same here. I'm trying out GBPVR right now because it offers both, but the setup is far from painless so far.

I must say that overall I'm very impressed with Sage. The extenders, completely customizable and extendable UI, and the great user base here make the experience great. The extenders truly make sagetv a great choice for you media needs. Basically no setup and it just works (unlike a htpc that always seems to need tweaking) While the folder and file naming is mildly annoying it hasn't been a big enough deal for me to do anything about it

I quite agree that Sage "just works", and for that, I love it. Two features that are pushing me away though are the lack of customization for recording directories/naming and lack of multi-record. The first makes it very hard to organize my shows automatically and the second is more of a convenience, albeit a valuable one with QAM.
