Is it possible to get sage to recognize non DVD structure as DVD?

For example: I would like to make a few mkv / mp4 files show up under the DVD menu.

Currently if I put those files in the DVDs folder they import under "Titles".


I guess alternatively it would be okay if I could group some DVDs and other formats under one menu and Titles under another.


Basically what I am trying to attempt is this. Currently under titles is a bunch of kid stuff that is mostly dvd's ripped to mp4.

The DVD menu shows dvds for parents / everyone. I have a quite a few of these movies duplicated as mp4 / mkv and like to just keep the mp4 / mkv versions.

I am open to other organization options.

No, the default UI's grouping is pretty fixed. You're best option at this point is to install Gemstone, which will allow you to group and filter your media however you please.

If you choose to stick with the default Sage UI, I recommend only using the view by Folders view for Videos. Then you can organize your videos into folders on your hard drive that are logical to you. This way you can have movies that are in video formats like MKV and videos that are ripped in BD or DVD structure grouped together.

Sorting within the folders still may not be exactly the way you want though.
