[QUOTE="TBacker, post: 1273716, member: 113933"] We'll, again I have posted a problem then found the solution myself :whistle: I incorrectly used "[B]Multi seat setup: use UNC paths[/B]" when I was setting up initially and having some trouble with paths. I had clicked help for that setting before I tried using it, but many of the help links in the config utility are broken. Today I searched the wiki for it and found it. Anyway, disabling it solved the slow change issue (all changes are about 3-4 seconds). So some things that should be fixed if possible (I know - development time is limited, and this is MP1): 1. Fixing help links in the Configuration utility 2. The ability to directly enter UNC paths in TV-Server configuration > Recording > Folders > Recording Folder and TV-Server configuration > Timeshifting > Folders > Recording Folder. The dialog to set these is locked to only selecting what shows up in the tree (i.e. NETBIOS listed machines in Network) - there is no way to manually enter a path.
