[QUOTE="infinite.loop, post: 1006080, member: 10723"] Btw. What I ended up doing was: [LIST=1] [*]configure MP to place its DB's and thumbs by using MediaPortalDirs.xml to point to my networkstore. All clients use them same folders. [*]install MyFilms and enter its configuration [*]change all fanart, etc. paths to point to the UNC path on the networkstore (IIRC only needed to change one, the rest were used from MediaPortalDirs.xml) [*]do an import of all the movies using UNC paths [*]run MP and make sure all is okay [*]now I moved my [name].xml catalog to the server, and changed the path to that catalog xml inside the MyFilms config as well as the ACM Updater to that UNC path on the server. [*]then I saved the ACM Updater config to the networkstore and updated the shortcut on the desktop to point to that file [*]now I ran MP again to make sure everything is still working [*]After that I installed MyFilms on the other clients, ran it once, and then copied over the MyFilms.xml from the first HTPC.
