[QUOTE="Collective, post: 519186, member: 79277"] We have the same issue, files scattered over 4 different HD's. My solution was to create a small 'Media' partition (or dir), then using the 'Hardlink shell extension' [url=http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html]Link Shell Extension[/url] I added all the movie directories and tv series etc all into the Media dir with this tool (I used 'junction') So now I have a media dir with tv series dir, with dir's for each series, a movies dir with dir's for each genre, comedy, action, horror etc, then just point mediaportal to the 'media directory. This way I can move directories around, from HD to HD, add a new HD and as long as I update the junctions, then mediaportal see's no difference Just remember to maintain and add/update junctions [/QUOTE]
