Different paths same movie.
#1
Is it possible for kodi to use 2 different paths for the same movie?

Like if it doesn't find the movie at x:\movie it will look in y:\movie?

i looked into

http://kodi.wiki/view/path_substitution

but i couldn't get that to work.

When you scrape the file, the correct path is saved in the database, why would that change?

Yes, add another source. You can have as many sources as you like.

i know that, but if you scrape the files in more than one place then it creates duplicates.

Why do you have the movie in two different places ? I am really struggling to see your use case.

because i don't have enough space to keep all my stuff on the drives inside my computer, i have some external drives that i have the majority of my media on.

but i don't like to keep them on all the time.

Well set up your computer up so that your drives always get the same drive letter.
