Organize by genre

Who said anybody was waiting? I’ve already created a solution of my own but there are challenges to that as well. Plus, I’ve reserved creating a collection to things like James Bond movies or Harry Potter, etc.

What I’ve done instead is to create directories with genre names and create genre specific library to map back to the directory. This isn’t a clean solution as the search function finds it as two different entities, one in the main Movies section and one in the genre section.

They’re using a relational database to keep track of all the mapping of title to file location. I can’t imagine it being too difficult mapping the name to a specific database field (genre) and pushing that data back to the web API.
