[QUOTE="csapollo, post: 412465, member: 51018"] Hi rekenaar. I finally got around to doing this tonight. I first did a clean MP1.0.1 installation, configured everything on there including MovingPictures/MyTVSeries (as well as letting the plugins download all data/information from my folders). Locally, on the server (single seat installation), I was able to move the database/thumbs directory to another drive (F:/), and map them in the MediaPortalDirs.xml file as described in the documentation. Locally on the server, when I load up Mediaportal, everything appears to work. On the client end, I did a clean install of MP1.0.1. I did what is described in the documentation (including using the modified MediaPortalDirs.xml file that maps the database/thumbs folders via the share) but when I load Mediaportal on the client PC, MyTVSeries is empty, and MovingPictures shows the list of my movies (700+ movies), but does not have artwork for them. If I try to play on, it has an error about it not being available. If I open the movingpictures database that is on the server using an SQL browser, I see that the import path for all of the movies is listed as G:\example.avi.. Is this causing my grief? IIRC you're running a centralised database, so how did you get your client end to work? Thanks :) Just a thought - is it possible that I have to delete the MovingPictures/MyTVSeries databases and Thumbs folders, and re-configure the plugin on the server and add my files using share names instead of the local paths? ie. on the server "test", instead of adding G: as my movie folder i'd have to add a manual path "\\test\movies\" with movies being the share name for G:? I have noticed problems the same issues with my movie artwork on the server now. Is the artwork location also mapped in the moving pictures database? Given that I configured these plugins before they were moved and remapped that might be the source of my problems.. [/QUOTE]
