    afaik there is no jira for that ;)
    But it´s annoying that you can freely browse the parent folder(s) which are not explicitly foreseen for videos, pictures, music etc.
    This makes the door wide open for content that should eventually not be seen by anyone else ;)

    hum, if i can help ( i think catavolt can explain better than me )
    on the actual MP release. all USB drive are listed inside each plugins MyVidéo/Music/Pictures as external drive.
    But few user, use Flash drive as " local hard drive", so inside MP config, it add drive letter to shared folder, and manage it as local storage.
    so few user want only add acces to few folder inside the flash, and not the root folder.

    i'm not sure my explain is clear.

    so, the best attempt is to have :
    IF letter drive is set inside MP Config. not consider as USB Flash drive. and skip it on auto-mount process.
    But how to detect if the USB Flash is replaced ?

    It seems I have found a solution to hide the root folder (drive letter) of the usbHDD and flash drive if there is a share on that drive.

    For example:
    • usbHDD(or flash drive) E:\testvideos, is named "test videos". The E: is hided but the label test videos is shown.
    • usbHDD(or flash drive) E: is NOT shared in my video. The E: is shown and browsable the all drive as now in MP 1.10.
    Is it ok?

    usbHDD(or flash drive) E:\testvideos, is named "test videos". The E: is hided but the label test videos is shown.
    only one thing !
    If shared in MyVidéo but not inside MyPics. E: don't be showed inside all other plugins.


    usbHDD(or flash drive) E: is NOT shared in my video. The E: is shown and browsable the all drive as now in MP 1.10.
    OK.

    I don't organise my media in the way that you do, so I don't know whether MediaPortal provides the capability that you want. All that I can suggest is that you read this page in the MP Wiki and experiment to see if it will merge the separate folders to give you a unified view of the media. -- from CyberSimian in the UK

When the movie is changed from the first item in the list, the value populates. I have a working solution to this issue and it requires an update to the Cornerstone.MP.Extensions project class...

    OK, I found a way to make it work. It seems like MP-TV-series Configuration (and Moving Pictures Configuration) starts as Administrator, and the Administrator do not have yet logged in on the UNC \\192.168.222.247\Public even if the normal user on the PC have done it.

    I'm not sure what the issue was, but I decided to try a different way of solving the problem. My server has a 2.5Gbps port and the 10Gbps card I added, so I've connected the HD Homerun directly to the 2.5G port, and its solved the problem, I can now copy large multiple files to the server and not suffer with picture issues. There is...
