[QUOTE="Russ_T_, post: 1261541, member: 102413"] Hi It seems that moving pictures importer wont add files from a removable drive I have a MS Surface tablet, with a 128gb MicroSD card in it with lots of movies on it. Mapped to drive M: When I add any of the folders from drive M to the media sources in Moving pictures config, it quickly scans them but doesn't add any of the movies. [B]If I copy the exact same folders to the C: drive and point to that in Moving pictures, it finds them and adds them as movies[/B] I think this is because the M: drive is removable, and Moving Pictures doesn't like it: When looking at the "Movie Importer" tab: - The [B]M:[/B] drive "Media source" in Moving pictures has a tooltip on it "Drive type: Removable (removable), Online True" - The [B]C:[/B] drive "Media source" in Moving pictures has a tooltip on it "Drive type: Fixed" I'm never going to remove the MicroSD card, and I have run out of room on my C drive to add the movies there. Does anyone know of a way to get Moving Pictures to add the files when they are on the MicroSD card ? or fool it into thinking that the MicroSD card is actually a fixed drive type ( I tried lots of things and googled it for ages ) Also does anyone know where the Moving Pictures Help has gone to. If I click on the "User's Manual" hypertext from the About tab, it takes me to here: [URL]http://www.moving-pictures.tv/[/URL] which says the site cant be reached. Other similar links seem broken Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me. Russ [/QUOTE]
