[QUOTE="sridharb, post: 1260159, member: 58216"] Thanks morpheus_xx. I have more information. I tried the local only configuration with a local media source that uses symbolic links. The browse local items tile worked as expected and I was able to see all the files in that folder. When I clicked on the movie, it asked me to choose what kind of items to add - I chose video and it worked properly. So, it looks like the client is able to navigate through junctions properly. I then reconnected my server (on the same box) and then went into Movies (not Browse Media). Now, I saw it said Client items and Server items. When I chose Client items, it showed me the folder, but without any movie in it - i.e. the same problem that I have using server media sources. So, it looks like it is a Server problem and possibly an importer issue? How does the server know that there is a movie in a particular folder? Remember that I use folder view in "Movies" instead of Library view for the reasons given above. Thanks, Sridhar [/QUOTE]
