That way the existing movies aren't deleted from the database when they can not be located. Then you can simply add the external drive (make sure it becomes same drive letter as you would use at home), and setup an import path if you haven't already. MovingPictures will detect the new files, add them to the database and you can simply copy the movingpictures.db3 database and 'thumbs' folder as-is for usage at home.As for duplicating your movie folder structure with 0-byte files, that requires a little bit of Batch scripting.</blockquote>
