[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1181793, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome By this do you mean that you cannot use the recording folder selection dialog to select the share under My Network Places -> Microsoft Windows Network -> [workgroup/homegroup name] -> etc. (or whatever it has become under Windows 10)? This is intentional - firstly to avoid people making mistakes, and secondly because recording directly to a NAS is not recommended (many things can go wrong). The configuration is stored in the TV Server database "Card" table, "recordingFolder" column. It is possible to edit the contents of the database with most SQL/database editors. Note that many editors require knowledge of [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL']SQL [/URL]and are therefore not easy to use for people who are not familiar with databases. Sorry, I'm not able to provide a recommendation for an editor that [I]would[/I] be easy to use. Correct. Those settings cannot be imported. I assume the logic is that the import/export functionality was intended for migration between PCs, and since regular folders are PC-specific it would not make sense to transfer the setting. Kind regards, mm [/QUOTE]
