Hello,

How do I setup the system to load folders on more than one hard drive?

Whenever I try under MyVideo options, I can only select the one hard drive at a time.

Thanks for the help.

There is a file in the main MP directory called "Mediaportaldirs.xml". In there you can change where certain things are located.

I have looked at the file, but I am confused.

What would I need to change and how to get the folders on Two Diff hard drives to load?

    allanp81 is talking about something totaly different than what you wanted

    You can have all the videos shown if you scan them all in from the config,
    but the easier solution is to use the plugin Movingpictures, it has more features and is faster scanning movies
    and it will always show all the movies in one list.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    OK, I found a way to make it work. It seems like MP-TV-series Configuration (and Moving Pictures Configuration) starts as Administrator, and the Administrator do not have yet logged in on the UNC \\192.168.222.247\Public even if the normal user on the PC have done it. So to fix it on the Win 11 HTPC: Created a shortcut to...
