1. it will be a good idea to use unique movie titles, e.g. Kill Bill 1, Kill Bill 2 ....
2. Naming of covers for a special film is defined in the "Cover" field in the "file" tab. When you change this data entry the cover sequence is named in another way when you add new movie covers.

I have a problem like this, when I archive some dvds like "le fiabe disney vol. 1", "le fiabe disney vol. 2", etc..
When I try to import a cover for the first disc (for example), all other discs take the same cover..if I try to change the cover, all disc change the cover..
How can I do to add a different cover for each disc then ?
thx

See my last posting: unique movie titles are necessary.
For example:
"le fiabe disney vol. 1" --> covers are stored as "le-fiabe-disney-vol.-1.jpg, le-fiabe-disney-vol.-1_1.jpg,....
"le fiabe disney vol. 2" --> covers are stored as "le-fiabe-disney-vol.-2.jpg, le-fiabe-disney-vol.-2_1.jpg,....

Where is the problem?

My 2 cents.

The problem is (as i also explained in the bugs section) that XMM seems to keep all information (except cover information) unique per movie record. When importing information from the internet through the scripts i have no control over image naming or placement and thus the problem arrises because the covers are shared between all movies. This should be fixed in XMM by making each movie record's covers unique for that record so that these unwanted side effects will be avoided.
