[QUOTE="Galileo, post: 104751, member: 18433"] Ok, here's the problem I'm faced with. I have 4 250Gig drives in my system and I'm backing up my DVD collection. This way I can view my DVD's without having to leave my chair to actually put one in. It works like a charm. The problem is how to order them. I don't want to go browsing through 4 different subdirectories (mounted the drives as dirs) every time I want to see what I have. I could order them alphabetically, but since I'm buying new DVD's it would be a mess. Therefor I thought it would be a nice idea to create shortcuts to every DVD, put those shortcuts in 1 directory and have the whole list there with all the DVD's I have. If I want to view one I would just click the one I like and it would automatically direct to the right drive & dir. I wouldn't have to remember where I stored each single one, since I only have to create a new shortcut every time I backup a DVD. I haven't been able to get MP to 'see' the shortcuts, so how do I do that? Is MP even capable of doing that? [/QUOTE]
