harddrives and movies (1 Viewer)

[duppsko]

I have two extern harddrives with movies, and wanted to know if there's something i can do to make MP list all my movies from both the HDs instead of having to select wich harddrive to list the movies.

Whith NTFS u can tread a HD like a folder.

go to disk management console for options to mount a disk as a folder

thanks.

Tried that, but what i really would like if when i enter My Movies in MP it will show one list of all the movies on both HDs instead of that i have to click another folder to see the movies on HD #2.

Is this possible?

Yes, that should be possible.
You are currently looking at the "shares" view in My Movies. "Shares" is the MP word for folder hierarchy. Other views are also available, try tampering with the button (I believe the second one on the left hand row) called "view" or "views". If your movies suddenly disappear, you have to populate the moviedatabase, since exept share all views use a database with all kind of movie information. A search on the forum or in the wiki might help you with populating this database, but if you get stuck, don't hesitate to ask.

YES YES!
Thank you.

It was because i didn't scanned them for info so i ended up with an empty list.
Too bad this trick doesn't work with TV series.
When listing one HD at a time it was nice to click on a TV series and then a list came up with all the episodes to choose from. Just like a folder. But when i use this Show Titles it lists all the episodes in between the movies.

Like:
16 Blocks
Braveheart
Lost
Lost
Lost
Lost
Star Wars I
Terminator


Is it possible to do something with this? Like have a folder with files inside, in the "Title" view?

Thanks all for helping...
