[QUOTE="Vizar, post: 176768, member: 55807"] Hi everyone. I feel a little stupid, so please be gentle with me :-) I currently have a MediaPC setup running SnapStreams BTV and BeyondMedia. I've never liked neither the fact that it's two seperate programs (in MP it's nicely integrated into one), the look of the programs, nor the %&¤% Firefly remote. However, when i decided to use it, several years ago, it was a bit better than MP..... (ehem...) Now, however, i've reached my limit with BTV and BeyondMedia. But before i try to switch over, i've tried to figure out some stuff, but i am stuck. Since this is absolutely essential for me, i don't dare to switch before i know how to do this (see below). Please, please help me..... I have several harddisks with these folders on each.. [B]movies [/B](for single avi and divx files / movies, like "[I]Die Hard[/I]", "[I]Die Hard 2[/I]" and so on), then i have a folder on each drive for [B]series [/B](avi files and so on, with subfolders for each serie, like [I]Friends[/I], [I]Simpsons[/I] and more). And to top it off, i've a folder on each drive for [B]DVD movies[/B] (.vob, .ts files, with subfolders for each movie, named after each movie). My questions: 1: As i have it now, i have 3 menu items on my 'home' screen. One for Series, one for movies and one for DVD's (the latter one also have a sub-button for 'play DVD Disc'). Can i achieve the same in MP? 2: Including files in BeyondMedia (BM) is very easy. i just point to a folder, and BM add it to the root map. Then it scans all (new) movies via IMDB and adds the correct data. Can this be done, or do i need to add each movie manually? (such as via AMC??) Again... please advice... i'd love to switch over.... :-) [/QUOTE]
