Feature Request: Show Movie Extras Automatically?

Feature Suggestions
1

I’m ripping my content using makemkv, and it usually makes a path like MOVIE_NAME itle00.mkv through MOVIE_NAME itlenn.mkv, where title00.mkv is usually the main feature, and 01 through nn are special features.

I’d love if they were all grouped under the ‘movie’ name in plex, and I had a button in the UI to say “Browse Special Features” and let me thumb through them, versus treating them each like independent movies.

I have extra features that I rip and put in the same directory as the main movie, following the instructions in the FAQ, and the extras show up alongside the movie. Is this not how you are doing it?

The key is naming them right.
