[QUOTE="rekenaar, post: 563701, member: 27829"] Hi :) Mediaportal creates new log file everytime it is started. One option is to remove your mediaportal shortcut and create a new shortcut to the batch file mp.cmd to start mediaportal. Just change the hardcoded logsDir and mpDir and give it a try. It will basically copy the log files to a date directory and append the time to the filename. Then start mediaportal. [code] rem @echo off rem ****************************** rem ** configure directories here rem ****************************** set logsDir=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log set mpDir=C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal rem ****************************** c: cd %logsDir% for /f "tokens=1-3 delims=/- " %%a in ('date /t') do set XDate=%%a-%%b-%%c for /f "tokens=1-2 delims=: " %%a in ('time /t') do set XTime=%%a.%%b echo %XDate% %Xtime% md "%xdate%" copy mediaportal.log "%xdate%"\mediaportal_"%xtime%".log START "MP" "%mpDir%\mediaportal.exe" EXIT [/code] [/QUOTE]
