Some Newbie Questions....
I've successfully added metadata to some videos that could generate no metadata on their own using BMT (manual editing). This is excellent. BMT Rocks...
I do have a some questions though.... If I'm understanding this correctly... BMT doesn't create the videoname.avi.properties files, sage creates them? or are the Pheonix api's creating them? I don't remember seeing them before I installed the Pheonix plugins. I wanted to manually change the thumbnail used for the fanart. So in the web interface, the fanart location is "C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\STVs\Phoenix\Fanart\TV\Tracks Ahead\Season 6", yet when I look at that location via explorer, I find no file or sub-directory called "Season 6". Only a "Posters" directory in it with other jpgs. I'm confused.. If the .properties files are created for backup purposes only (as the manual states), what software can use these .properties backups to restore the metadata, and under what circumstances? I guess I'm trying to figure out if they are worth generating and keeping. I thought I saw an option someplace to turn .properties off. But I cannot find this now. Does this setting exist? I just manually added metadata to several videos. If I move these videos to another folder still within the import path(s), will the metadata move as well, or will it get lost? Thanks!!

Some of you questions (including what's phoenix/bmt) are answered in the user guide (linked in my signature), but I'll try to answer them here as well.
