Well, that is what I thought I did but I am still having trouble. I have taken screenshots if that would help communicate my problem but I am unsure about how to attach them (URL for the image?). I am also aware that some forum users attach "logs" if that is even the right word but I am not tech...

"So when your shares contain both C: and External drives and you have the same songs on both drives, they would appear multiple times, since because of the different paths, they are treated as not being the same. The only way getting rid of that is to have only C: in your shares and do a rescan...

I imagine there is painfully simple answer to this but I can't figure it out! When I select the genre view within MediaPortal the music that is displayed is referenced from my C: drive. In addition, all of the music that I have copied to my external hard drive is referenced causing...

My process: In MP configuration under Music>Music Folders I add a folder, title it External Hard Drive, and have it reference my music folder on my external hard drive. I then go to Music Database and under Scan music shares I deselect my C: drive and select my new external hard drive...

I am fairly confident I have a good handle on the update process. This is what I can't quite figure out. I go into MPTagThat and select a music folder. I then highlight all the tracks in that folder. I then select Genre in the panel to the right and enter the genre that I want to written...

And just when I thought everything was working... After tagging the majority of my music I went into to Media Player to see my changes. I right clicked the album art and clicked on Update Album Info. The Case Lock seemed to update the files correctly and so did the album art which was what I...

Sure enough, I went into IE and clicked on Tools>Folder Options>View>Show hidden files, folders or drives and then the folder.jpg files were visible! And at first I was not seeing the copies of the album art in the Thumbs\Music\Album folder but I am now. May have been my settings, but at this...

Well I deleted the coverart I had in the folders and that seemed to do it! Although I do like to have copies of the album art that I can click on, open, copy/paste, etc outside of MediaPortal. Is there any way that I can reveal these .jpg files and then exclude their containing folders from...

I am not sure if the problem I am having is because of a bug with MPTagThat, or because I am not editing my tags correctly. I am going to assume it's the second! Here is my workflow: First I use the the Folder/Database Tree View to navigate to my music library. It is already well organized...

Thank you for the response. My trouble was that I could not find the Application Data folder from the C: drive, but I did figure it out another way! For anyone else who is having trouble finding the Application Data folder try this (Windows 7). Start Menu>All Programs>Team...

I would like to be able to change the home screen backdrops for each of my headings (ex My Movies, My Pictures, etc.) as well as manually add some fanart to my music collection. In each instance I would like to use my own images, although, I cannot find the folder(s) that MediaPortal is...

That's what I needed to know thanks. Time to run out and buy a HD monitor/TV combo!

First of all thank you for your response. It is great to know you can get help when you need it. Really appreciate it. You will have to forgive me for overlooking enabling General->Skin->StreamedMP->Autosize window mode to skin dimensions. I have been adjusting settings since I found this...

Thank you! I have never posted on a forum before but I will have to again! Very helpful and timely response! I had deleted the My Series item because I do not plan to use MediaPortal for TV services and for the life of me couldn't figure out why I couldn't generate a new .xml

In several instances text within the StreamedMP skin overlaps neighboring text. The two most prevalent examples I have run into has been the Fanart Scraping notification in the upper left corner of the home screen overlapping the progress bar, and the Runtime overlapping the Certification in the...
