For example I put <show name> into ../media/movies/<showname/ for just the series and leave movies or one off recordings in the ..media/movies/ folder.
The problem I then had was with a whole screen of individual series folders when I hit 'media' I had to go into each series folder to see if they had recordings or if they were empty (or all were empty).
What I've done is test that if I create a new autotimer for showX then set the autotimer 'custom location' path to ../media/movies/showX (which needs a new folder created during adding the autotimer so it can be selected).
Then I save the autotimer.
Then disable the autotimer (off).
Then delete the new folder (I can't seem to do this if I leave the autotimer enabled or it records into the trash folder).
Then re-enable the autotimer.
The effect is the next time an autotimer starts recording showX it will create the /media/movies/showX folder and record into it.
For regular shows there's not much point in disabling/deleting the folder/reenabling, but for shows that aren't regularly on/recorded then it means I can now watch all recordings in showX subfolder, delete them, delete showX folder and do the same for other series and not have empty series subfolders, only those with new/some recordings will show in the media recordings list.
Possible feature request: It could be useful to add a feature to to autotimers to allow 'hide empty series custom locations' as an on/off setting to trick the GUI into not displaying these empty folders unless there's new recordings.
