InTheCrack - Consistency & Consensus

While manually filling in StashDB gaps for InTheCrack scenes, I’ve noticed general inconsistency in the ways scenes are designated and titled. I’d like to draw attention to the different methods and get a sense for the consensus on how to organize these moving forward.

ITC is organized somewhat differently from other sites, in that each “session” with a model contains one set of photos and about 3-6 individual scenes with their own (cheesy ass) titles and descriptions, all wrapped up with a session title that includes the sequence number and model’s name. Most of these sessions are given a single entry in StashDB with a duration equal to the sum of the individual scenes and an aggregation of their descriptions. This session, for example, has both. I don’t see any way on ITC’s site to download the scenes of a session as one single video file.

The entry in the orange box is the parent session which the other pictured scenes derive from.

Sometimes scenes are given their own entries, sometimes some but not all scenes are combined, and sometimes only the parent session is given an entry.

When individual scenes are given an entry, their titles are given a variety of formats, some including reference to the parent session, others not.

More examples: A, B, C

It seems to me that individual scenes should each be given their own entry, as ITC differentiates between them with unique descriptions and download files, but that they should be grouped together as they share a gallery and are taken at roughly the same time.

The clearest naming format seems to be something like: session # model name scene #: scene title
So the Anastasia Knight scenes pictured above would be
1527 Anastasia Knight 1: Ditz and Ass
1527 Anastasia Knight 2: Buzzy Place to Knight
etc.

Are there any problems with this approach?

And, does anyone have a good way to automate it?

I agree with you that they probably should be separate entries, but a lot of usenet sources and some torrent sources are combining them now (where in the past they were usually separated).

While technically this violates how the site presents them and allows you to download them, not all sources provide them in individual formats.

Then you have files that have all individual scenes in them and you have to pick which of the n number of scenes you want to associate it with.

My guess is people have been combining them because in total it’s about 20-30 minutes in total.

I’m not sure people are going to be happy either way it ends up going. While the separating out each one is the 1:1 accurate way based on the site’s presentation, certain sources are combining them and scraping them at a collection level so having separate entries for each collection item will also make other unhappy as well.
