External HDD Setup (1 Viewer)

[itschrismck]

I am trying to configure MediaPortal to see my external hdd connected via USB to view all my media files. I have all media files stored on it since it is much larger than the internal drive.

I have looked high and low and can not figure out how to configure MP to see the additional drive & folders (music/videos/pictures/etc).

If this has been covered I am sorry to ask again. I did a search and did not find the answer.

Thanks

This is very easy....
1) Connect drive, and make sure it is mounted...
2) Run the 'Setup MediaPortal' app
3) For movies go to the 'Movie Folders' path in the tree
4) Hit the 'Add' button and add your USB drive.
5) For 'Music' and 'Pictures' do the same...

Cheers

Yes, that was easy! I am embarrassed. Thanks for the help & thank you to everyone that helped make Media Portal so awesome. I really enjoy it.
