[QUOTE="iancalderban, post: 367400, member: 85629"] [b]found a way![/b] I found a way to get MP tv server to re-read it all. by luck whilst doing something else 1) I have a number of files that are in recorded tv directory that are not present in recorded tv database, but I'd like them to be. 2) I have moved some (different) files out of my recorded tv directory into another directory (by hand in windows). These are films or series, that I am going to load into My Videos / My TV series instead. So these files are now present in the recorded tv database but are NOT present in the record tv directory. 3) I go to the TV server database import tab and click the button (can't remember exact name) for delete recordings that no longer exist. this prompts me to delete , one-by-one, all the recorded tv entries in category 2) - of course it can't delete the files as they are no longer there. Then (automatically) it seems to rescan the directory and asks me about the files in category 1), do I wish to import them? (yes!). 4) I then fire up MP, go to recorded to TV - and all the files that I want are there, and the files that I don't want, aren't! :D so the answer for me at least - set something up for deletion, that then appears to trigger a reimport as well.
