Really tired of the tree directory navigation and want to give this a go. My tech / code knowledge is low on the scale of what I read on these forums. I did get this far on my own though!
Wish me luck. I hope there's someone out there still reading this thread because I know I'm going to hit a few walls!
One quick question - how long does the initial scanning of about 750 movies take?

What model of popcornhour do you have?
It will take at least 2-3 hours.

That's not how YAMJ works. The time will depend on the speed of the PC, hard drives, internet connection and other factors. It has nothing to do with the PCH.

I didn't mean to imply that it depends on PCH model - I just wanted to know what model so I could recommend either an HTML skin or FLASH (eversion) skin.
I have the same size movie collection and with an average PC/HDDs/Network connection it takes me about 2-3 hours to run a full (from scratch) YAMJ scrape.
After that it take minutes just to update new movies when added.

I have the A-200 Popcorn hour.
When you say PC - I hope you mean unRaid. My unRaid was build 09/2010:
Supermicro MBD-X7SBE LGA 775 chipset
2 GB RAM
Intel Celeron 430
Is having YAMJ on the NAS or on the laptop I upload my iso's to the best option? Reading more about this it seems when I upload my iso's (through a laptop connected to the network) I could simply update YAMJ on my laptop at the same time and it would create a updated file on the unraid that Popcorn hour would access when starting up. Is this correct? So, YAMJ on the NAS or created from the laptop is a decision I have to make. Best option?
The link on Lime Tech's site to YAMJ no longer functions - can I download directly from YAMJ website?
I'll start this entire process tomorrow. Glad to know someone is out there!

You can download from the above link for starters and then upgrade to the latest YAMJ from their website.

Ran YAMJ on my laptop. Had a few hiccups but now it's working. Wow, I wished I'd have done this so much sooner. I'm cleaning up my filenames so I don't have to edit the index file - I'd rather it gets it right on its own. I think I'll move on to a skin after this. I've tried a file manager (don't have the name with me here at work) but didn't get my changes to 'stick'. I'm trying to remove the small language banners at the top corner of the cover art and running into problems. My 'change this code line to...' skills are lacking but I'll keep trying. Once I'm done cleaning up a few more errors (cover art / movie listings that I don't have so I have to search that out / TV series (mostly my kid's shows) need to be turned into series / and dead links where you hit play and nothing happens) I'll move forward.
So glad I'm doing this but at first was daunting. I wished there was a better one place sticky guide for director / filename structure. I did eventually find the google code wiki pages which helped immensely.
