So my MP2 config page doesn't have the 'Video' folder listed, it looks like this image from the wiki...

[ATTACH=full]215055[/ATTACH]

My TV recordings are in folder E:\TV-Recordings
...so to avoid any confusion with current folders, I used Windows Explorer to...
a: make this test folder: E:\Test-Folder-02
b: then I moved 4 current TV program files, and their .xml files,
from that E:\TV-Recordings folder / to the E:\Test-Folder-02

Then I tried to follow the info in this wiki:
and as this media is on this HTPC, I set the provider to: Local File System
NB: The Server & Client are both on the one PC.

Now: Those 4 TV programs can be seen in the folder-view, in folder: Test-Folder-02
But they are also still listed in the main-view, so it doesnt seem to reduce the number of .ts files being 'seen' in the main-view, so presumably, they are still being counted as part of the 1500 .ts files that are causing my current problem.

I dont know, but perhaps I am doing this all wrong ?

Many thanks.
