Originally reported on Google Code with ID 637

What steps will reproduce the issue?
1. create a boxset
2. add a folder.xml


What is the expected output?  What do you see instead?
Expected: the boxset folder is ignored and the media items contained within the boxset
folder are visible in MCM for management.

http://community.mediabrowser.tv/permalinks/3207/using-a-folder-xml-with-mediabrowser


Actual: folder.xml causes the boxset folder to be seen as a media item with missing
meta data. 

Can MCM please ignore folder.xml?



What is the exact version of the Media Center Master that you are using?
Make sure you include the build number (example: 1.24.21610.455).
v1.30 (build 11711.977)


Please provide any additional information below:
Is there any other method that can be used to allow within MediaBrowser:

1) custom name for a boxset folder
2) custom description 

as per the first reply in the link attached above.

Note - some sort of solution is needed - when using MB (pearl skin) in "details" mode,
folders that have no meta data (box folders etc) appear with no name. 

Poster / coverflows views will pick up art and do work, but there is no description
/ details.

Thumb view is kind of erratic.

Media Center Master now ignores folder.xml and most other xml files (mymovies.xml and
series.xml are still detected as title folders).

Alternatively, you can also add a boxset.xml and Media Center Master will treat this
as a box set folder.  No meta-data is even required in boxset.xml.
