Subtitle file regarded as part of boxset?

Subtitle file regarded as part of boxset?
Hi there,

I installed oversight some weeks ago and I'm very enthousiastic about it!

However I noticed something weird lately. I've got every movie in a single folder on my NMT harddisk (A-110). Some movies are iso's, other are video_ts folders, and other are MKV files. Some MKV files have subtitles hardcoded, others need an extra .srt file. So for every movie, file structure may look like this:

/Video/Moviename/Moviename.iso
or
/Video/Moviename/video_ts/*.* and /Video/Moviename/audio_ts/*.*
or
/Video/Moviename/Moviename.mkv (with subtitles hardcoded)
or
/Video/Moviename/Moviename.mkv & /Video/Moviename/Moviename.srt

This works great, except for the last case; when I have Moviename.mkv and Moviename.srt in a folder called Moviename, somehow Oversight shows Moviename as a boxet with two movies. One movie links to Moviename.mkv, the other one links to the folder Moviename (as if it were a video_ts folder, which it isn't).

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

You only need one folder for the MKV.. put the srt into the same folder as the file (same file name as movie of course)

/Video/Moviename/Moviename.mkv & Moviename.srt

Works by accessing the subs via remote as normal.

Well that's what I already do Smile And that's the problem; even though the .mkv file as well as the .srt file are in the same folder; Oversight says it's a boxset.

Ok, I deleted the database as described here, and did a full rescan, now it seems the problem is solved.

Strange I've never had that problem.

Might be worth slightly changing file names, de listing and re scanning just to check it isnt a bug
