[QUOTE="LJG, post: 1133170, member: 120269"] Hello, I will be building a new server soon, and want to move all my files from one server called 'bedroom' to a new server called 'server'. I have a number of files that have been manually imported as they are dvd rips, so each episode has been assigned a Series Name, season and episode number, against the .ifo files using the Import tab on the MP TV Series config. I have read some old forum posts suggesting that the files can just be moved, and as long as the new path is added to the Import tab, MP TV Series will just pick this up and move them. However, I am testing this theory on a test machine, and it doesn't seem to work. If I move the DVD ripped files from one hard drive to another hard drive, even if both paths are added to the import tab, MP TV Series just tells me that the files are offline, and does not find them in their new location. I can't find a way of changing the path names of the files from D Drive to C Drive, so I assume this will be the same if I move them from one network location to another. The only seeming way to do it is to re-import everything manually, and I really don't want to do that! Any tips? Many thanks lisa [/QUOTE]
