Hi!
im really new to mediaportal and i found it very exiting to play around with. but i have a big problem.. the only media i can find when searching for music movies or pics is my DVD drives and the folders Mymusic, mypicture etc... but i got 600gb of music on ANOTHER place then my music on c:

how do i find it?
there was a scanprogram during the install but it crashes the first time i tried it and i cant find that scanner again.. please help! i really enjoy the first looks of mediaportal

I have the same problem. When I go to see "My Videos", there are no videos. How can I see them? Is there a some scanning method I didn't notice?

@StarvinMarvin - Go to MediaPortal setup (the external program, not the settings wtihin MediaPortal), and it there will be an option under each section to add other media folders (e.g. Under Music, you have the option of 'Music folders').
