Hi.
In the Setup/General I find "File Menu"(which I have enabled).. What is it used for?
I guess I should be able to browse files on my drives... But I have no menu item allowing me to do that.

It adds a "File menu" option to the context menu (F9). Browse to any file (music, movie, picture...), bring out the context menu and choose File menu. You get the option to copy, move, delete your files and so on.

Hello... I know it is an old post, but running MP 0.2.2 stable, and although I have entered that file menu, I cannot copy or move a movie file...

I can only see remove, rename or new directory functions...

It would be great I could simply move a file from a directory to other, since that way I could manage my downloaded series or movies, directly from player...

Also there seems to be available 2 plugins for that, but also seems to be unsupported by last releases of mediaportal, as proyects have been left by their developers... I speak of "my explorer" and "file explorer"...... in my case, I tried to add "my explorer" to plugins at MP 0.2.2 stable, and it is not possible to activate or configure at MP configuration/plugins.. so, it seems MP to not support managing files completely, only renaming or deleting, as I think moving a file is a simply feature necessary for much people...

Can you confirm you can copy or move files, and tell me how?

Thanks.

Got it working again!!! (y) (y) It seems the file "DialogMenu.xml" in the theme folder does not have the onX settings in the file by default (after MP 1.36) and when you install a later version of MP. I modified the MP 1.38 file with the onX settings from MP 1.36. Also I have found the "DialogMenu.xml" from MP 1.36 will work with MP...

Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database". Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...
