[QUOTE="groovybaby, post: 1300860, member: 162270"] Reading the MP2 [URL='https://www.team-mediaportal.com/wiki/display/MediaPortal2/Setting+up+Media+Sources']Wiki [/URL]I mentioned earlier, which says... [HEADING=2][I][COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)]'The Concept of Media Sources [/COLOR][/I][/HEADING] [COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)][I]MP2 uses the concept of distributed media, but centralized information. This means that your media items can be anywhere - on your MP2 Server, on your MP2 Client, on any other computer in your network, on a NAS or maybe even in the Internet....[/I][/COLOR] [I][COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)]...The big advantage of this concept is that from the perspective of an MP2 Client it does not matter at all, where the media items are located. As soon as you attach a freshly installed MP2 Client to your MP2 Server, it has immediately access to all the media items your MP2 Server knows about. Unlike in MP1, there is no need to import your music collection on every single client. '[/COLOR][/I] So in MP2: This seems to confirm that all .ts files are displayed (in the main Recording listing) from wherever they happen to be on your HTPC system, so from all the internal & external drives, NAS etc, etc. So moving programs from one place to another will not solve this listing problem! NB: I have also discovered that there must be a matching .xml file, for its .ts file to be displayed in that list. Personally from a users POV: I dont think imposing a limit of 5000 files makes any sence. It would be nice to know why there is any limit? I know that sometimes when writing programs you have to set some limits, to allow a program to run correctly, but 5000 does seem low, when you consider the use that MP was created for. Many american TV series have about 25 episodes per series, so that a maximum of 200 series. If you just watched something, and then deleted it, then the problem would be less likely, but many of us like to save programs for possible future reference. I have many music-program recordings, which I save like I would save an artists album, etc. Is it possible to install MP1 on to my MP2-HTPC ? Without it causing any problems with its MP2 install ? eg: If I installed MP1, and then used MP1, and didnt use MP2 ? I cant think of any other way to solve this listing problem. It would be great to know if other MP2 user have had this issue, and if, and how they solved it, Many thanks. [/QUOTE]
