The post about data organizers encouraged me to ask this. Those of you that accumulate movies, TV, music from different sources probably wind up with slightly different naming conventions, like “Mad.Max.Fury.Road.2015.1080p.BluRay.mp4” vs “Mad Max (1979) (1080p BluRay x265).mkv.” In an alphabetized list, these different conventions can lead to files being out of order and lead to confusion regarding what you have or finding the right film to watch. Do you rename files, and if so, do you rename them into something plain English like “Mad Max: Fury Road (2015).mp4”? Or some other style? And do you put all your Mad Maxes or Aliens or Matrixes (Matrices?) into folders so they’re all together? Thanks for input.
