[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 684093, member: 18896"] Why would you want to manually keep adding movies to the parental filter? If in the future you ever add another non-kid-friendly movie, and you forget to update the parental filter again, then the kids have full access. Instead you should look into automatic methods, and since you can add multiple filters you can create a parental filter setup that does the following example: [list][*]Include any R, and X rated movies (possibly add PG and PG-13 if your kids are very young) [*]Include any movie that has "\Adult movies\" in the fullpath (eventhough 'X' certification should cover these, this only works if all your adult movies correctly scrape and are assigned a certification, the CDUniverse scraper should work fine though) [/list] You can even create a folder "\PIN Protected\" and filter on those as well. Since MovingPictures is able to recognize files being moved between import paths, it will only update the path. You do have to be sure that the 'move' is instant, so if you move over a slow network, then the movie will first be deleted and then re-added, so you loose your watched flag status. In those cases, simply shut down MediaPortal, move the files over and then restart MediaPortal. It will always detect the new location correct then. [/QUOTE]
