Hi,

in my configuration this works without any problem. Mediaportal: Switch view to "Title"

I am not sure, if this makes the difference: On my HDDs each movie is located in 1 dedicated folder (as I do have DVD-rips also);
Mediportal configuration: "Movies" (main tab): check "Every movie has its own directory.

Good luck!

    Without database it's impossible to "merge" them.
    You may look at MovingPictures plugin which automates that much more than My Videos.

    Tra junction magic to strip different folders to one target folder. Maybe thats the solution for you.

    thanks for the help but my problem with this is that im using vista and they only have an unstable version for it and says use at your own risk.

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...

    Well just tried that. Chose TV Channels and clicked "Clear". All channels cleared then did a rescan. What a shitshow! All channel number mappings a total mess: STV as Channel 1, W as Channel 18, BBC channels way down the list. Thanks for trying to help but this software, for me, is just a mess. Appreciate all the time you have...

    Hi, That is unfortunately not possible. I fear you have to mark them as watched manually. Maybe there is also a change with an data base editor (SQLite Editor), but it will be not easy and I can’t provide a manual, because I didn’t try yet.

    Copy or move the TV recordings that are older to another hard disk. Then specify this path under Videos (not TV). Then you can watch these recordings normally again. Since I record myself on an SSD, a larger (currently 2TB) would not be an option for me personally. ---------------------------- Die TV Aufnahmen welche älter sind auf...
