kodi compatible trailer naming

[bullwinkl]

Forgive me if it's obvious, but I have kodi compatible trailer naming enabled and it's literally naming all the trailers that are downloaded "movie-trailer.mkv" instead of moviefilename-trailer.mkv. Is this intentional? Is this controlled in a setting I haven't found yet?

Thanks in advance!

Yes it's intentional and from my understanding, it should be compatible. But I don't personally use kodi, so it's largely untested...

I looked through the documentation at https://kodi.wiki/view/Trailers and I don't see anything about "movie-trailer.ext" being compatible. Just so I'm clear, it's calling every trailer "movie-trailer.mkv". All of them, no matter the title of the movie.

From the kodi docs:
Trailers are named the same as the movie file but have -trailer appended to the name with no spaces

So if you have a movie file named "Hoosiers (1986).mkv" a Kodi compatible trailer filename would he "Hoosiers (1986)-trailer.mkv"

Not sure if I'm making sense...but thanks for the quick response!
