Naming convention for French movies?

[Alexandr3]

Hi,

I found this thread for naming convention and before going on and re-naming all my files, I would like to know if you guys had any succes with non-english movies.

For example, Tangled file would be named:
Tangled.(2010).m4v

But since I have the French version, how should I rename the file so the title and description is in French for my kids to understand?
Tangled.(2010).French.m4v
or
Raiponce.(2010).m4v (which is the official french title)
or something else.

Thanks!!!

You will probably have to go the NFO route, and probably manually create them as I don't know of any NFO generators that work in other languages (if someone else does, hopefully they will post or you can try Googling around for one).

When creating the NFO files, be sure NOT to include the <id> tag so that Boxee will only use the metadata in the NFO file and not override it with its English language version.

So you would do this:

Raiponce.(2010).m4v
Raiponce.(2010).nfo

and inside, Raiponce.(2010).nfo would look like (apologies for the translation, blame Google ):

<movie>
 <title>Raiponce</title>
 <rating>8.3</rating>
 <year>2010</year>
 <outline>Lorsque le plus recherché et le plus charmant du royaume-bandit Flynn Rider se cache dans une tour mystérieuse, il est pris en otage par Raiponce, une belle et fougueuse tour assortis de l'adolescence avec 70 pieds de magique, cheveux d'or. Étrange ravisseuse de Flynn, qui cherche son billet sur ​​la tour où elle a été enfermée pendant des années, conclut un marché avec le voleur beau et le duo improbable se lance dans une escapade pleine d'action, compléter avec un cheval super-flic, un surprotéger caméléon et une bande bourrue de voyous dans les pubs.</outline>
