Perhaps it would help to eleborate on more actual usage scenarios.Because personally I'm aware of the setting, but have always ignored it, as it never seemed to work out well with race conditions for me. My mistake back then was probably to add the new import path with all the old-path movies in it before toggling that replace setting, as it would make sense to me to do that step first. But the subsequent warning you get when you actually use the option could scare some users into thinking they might then loose their existing collection.So what I still do myself is create empty folder and add it as new import folder in MovingPictures, then close MovPic, move all the folder+files over from old import path to new one, and then launch MovPic again. All the database reference are perfectly updated, I close and re-open MovPic one more time to make sure no more 'red' marked entries exist and finally remove the old import path and after closing MovPic for the final time can remove old path/drive/etc.I'm sure if the toggle setting is used correctly this can be done much 'easier', but it would help to explain that in a few usage examples. For example "Moving collection from old import path to a new one with both import locations available", and "Moving collection from local drive to a UNC share", etc.
