Hey,
Im trying to get mediaportal sorted however i seem to be hitting a bit of block with pictures as currently we use iPhoto to organise them all but cos of its original\modified folders i cant seem to work out a good way of getting them into mediaportal.

Has anyone managed to get this working?
Thanks

ps. sorry for the cross-posting, hoping would get more luck here

I do not know how iPhoto organizes, but you just see a basic file system view. So you will probably "only" see the folders you mentioned. At the moment there is no change to this behaviour possible.

unfortunately iPhoto has some ridiculous folder layout holding originals in one location and the modifiled files in another with no apparent way of combining the two except exporting everything again.

anyway thanks for your help.

Yep - That sounds like the apple way to do it; make it as difficult as possible for the user to use any other software than apples... Same with itunes way of organizing music files on the ipod...
