[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 556047, member: 76888"] [B]- Is there a way to make the stop button on my remote act as the "back" button in moving pictures only? Can you set that up to do that just in moving pictures through the microsoft remote settings? I'm still a bit fuzzy on that stuff and how it works as the interface is very non-intuitive.[/B] Yes, this can be done quite easily. If mediaportal is handling the MCE remote, you can edit the stop button and add a conditional function. eg. if window id = moving pictures, then action = back. It's under MP Configuration -> Remotes -> Mapping. If it doesn't let you choose the window id for moving pictures, then set the window id to my videos then open the xml file manually and change the my videos id# to the moving pictures id#. The xml file is in the program data directory. eg. C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\InputDeviceMappings\Microsoft MCE.xml (VISTA) [B]- Ability to mass-edit titles to change things like movie file path, or cover paths would help greatly when I move some to a new server, etc.[/B] I would suggest using a little app that saves a backdrop.jpg , folder.jpg , movie.nfo file into each movie folder. It gets the images and data from the moving pictures database. Then if you move the file to a different server/directory moving pictures will automatically use the images and will also use the .nfo file to identify the movie in the new location. This will only work if each movie has it's own directory (however i beleive there is an app in the thread that will automatically create a folder for each movie based on the moving pictures database, then will update the database with the new locations, the folder name can be set to the movie title + year.
