Music = Artist / Album / Artist - Track.mp3
Video = Title first letter / title.m4v
Video Series = Series / Season X / title.m4v


This way if the SQL database goes boom I can still find what I want easily through explorer. I need to look at what Cal does when I put it on my server to try and use the content server I think I read it has.
@Nova5 - just because a column is called Author or Title don't mean it can't be used otherwise. I keep movies and journals in separate physical calibre libraries. For movies I put Director in Author, for journals I put Journal name in Author and Issue #/date in title. I also keep photo-albums in a calibre as CBZ's.

I've thought about using it for music, but for me its not worth the bother.
