I commercial cut and transcode most of my recordings, and then for specific recordings that I want to save for longer periods of time, I nuvexport them to divx and crunch them down to small file sizes. Then, I move these recordings under subdirs in my mythvideo directory.

What I'd like to do is exclude my "nuvexported TV shows" from mythvideo new video scanning, and only browse them from the "folder view". Is there some entry in a dotfile in that directory that exists to tell mythvideo to not scan that dir? Any other way to do this?

I remember seeing messages about a directory-specific dotfile (.mythvideo?) that could contain a specific player command to override defaults for a give directory. Could that file be expanded to provide override default values for new files discovered in that directory and all subdirs as well?

Also, regarding nuvexport and sql metadata... is there any video file container format that has the equivalent of an "ID3 tag" that can be used with nuvexport for storage of the show metadata that is in the mythtv database? I know Matroska has tag support... does any other video container support tags? http://www.matroska.org/technical/specs/tagging/


Thanks.
