I have just done a re-install of everything and now MyFIlms is asking me for the disk when I try a play a movie that is a file on my hard drive.
Why is this? I cant for the life of me figure it out....
That dialog will show up when MyFilms can't find the movie - so check, if you have kept your settings for the media source field - and of course that movies are still accessible. If all that is ok, post debug logs, that should tell what's happening...
It tries to launch
X:\Music\astropolis.wmv
does this file exist and is accessible from MF?
Maybe you had a different searchpath configured previously!?
Hi Guzzi
The path does exist, if I copy and paste it from either this log or the xml into windows explorer the movie starts, so its definitely not that.
Accessible from MyFilms? I dont know, how do I check this?
And I thought the searchpath is optional? The movie path in the xml is in the source field and I have that set in the myfilms config under DB Field
Its also doing it in my other config for my main movies. I have many Blurays and some rips. The rips are on a networked computer. Both Blus and rips are asking for the disk (numbered)
.. please post config file and which config you use. Did you recreate config with new install or used former existing one?
Also post the xml entry of the db or the full DB via PM to check exact information.
Hey Guzzi
I have now sorted this out.
The problem was for some strange reason in my MediaPortal config, under Videos/Video Extensions the extensions were all missing. I hit the default button which put them all back and now everything is working perfectly!
Ok, thanks for the User Management tip - I now get what I would expect. Now all I have to do is to figure out how to make Auto Login do what it says on the tin. The only way to make it work is to manually log in each time.
Any hints as to what I'm missing with the login system?

So "Resume playback from" only works when MediaPortal 2 has NOT been turned off, meaning if I shut MediaPortal 2 down, restart it...
Today my PVR disk died, taking with it a load of old recorded TV programmes. I swapped in a spare drive but I see that MP2 still thinks the old recordings exist. I expected the metadata for the recordings to be in same folder as the PVR but apparently not.
How do I make MP2 forget about these old recordings?
Needless to say, I tried...
