[QUOTE="PureLoneWolf, post: 826848, member: 24868"] Hi all Due to wanting to add new MP clients around my house, I decided to go for a central database so that my watched status in Moving Pictures and MP TV Series are in sync wherever I choose to watch. As the MP database was already populated with a lot of media, split across a lot of locations...I edited the database to reference UNC shares as opposed to mapped drives. This all seemed to work fine, until I went into the Moving Pictures Configuration. In the Moving Pictures Configuration...all of the films are listed in the Movie Manager correctly (with the correct paths) and the Movie Importer lists the correct UNC paths (and nothing else). However, the Movie Importer sees every file as being new. Leading to duplicates of every film being created. I presume that I missed something in the database, but can't see what. At the moment I am doing this on a test database...but would like to do it to the live database. I really don't want to have to wipe the films and rescan completely. Many thanks [/QUOTE]
