[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 660038, member: 18896"] 1. Open MovingPictures configuration screen. 2. Create Import path to your new location, be it different folder, drive or computer 3. Close down config 4. Move all your movies from the old path to the new one 5. Reopen MovingPictures configuration screen 6. Go to the Movie Details tab, and scroll down to notice all the movies marked with red color. These are your movies that have been updated with a new media location, which you can verify by changing from movie info to file info via the drop down selection. Test it with one or two movies otherwise and once you are happy it works, do it for everything. I've moved hundreds of files over to different drives and it updated the location in a few seconds. The underlying system is based on a hash code generated from the file, so as long as you don't change the contents of the file, then it will be recognized and only path will be updated. Enjoy.
