Hi.
A while ago I exported and imported my xbmc library from an xbmc running on a winxp machine to one running on windows 7, I noticed that I could not add my network drive as a source so I manually edited the sources xml file with my media mapped drive on my nas (M and it worked fine. I did it because my library "knew" the videos on this path.
I tried upgrading to eden today and this time it stopped working completely... I see M:\High Definition\Movies for my movies folder but I can't access it (tried as an administrator).
So, my questions are:
1. Is there a way to access a mapped drive in xbmc?
2. If not and I choose an SMB share from within xbmc, is there a(n easy) way to edit my entire library with the new path so I could keep it intact without having to rebuild everything and lose viewed status, modified artworks, etc...?
If #2 is possible I might just do it anyway for maximum portability of when I'll move to Linux for my xbmc machine.
Thanks.
