In the spirit of sharing, in order to help other members that might not be so well acquainted with the requirements to edit a custom mmedia.csv custom file, I'll post some information here (if this is not OK, just let me know and I'll erase the post).
My current custom output is mainly focused on audio files and produces something like this:
Code: Select all

The custom mmedia.csv text file required for this output have this kind of structure:
Code: Select all
General;
\[-----FILE----\]\r\n
File........: %FileName%.%FileExtension%\r\n

But it actually reads like this (all entries in each section - GENERAL/VIDEO/AUDIO - have to be in the same line):
