Moving files withoug loosing watchted flag - hug0 - 2010-08-06
What is considered to be the best way to move files from location a to b without losing the watched flag?
Only idea so far is to edit the DB manually to point to the new place b.
Thanks for any hints!

Assuming you have something reasonably new, the procedure is:
1. Export to a single file/folder. This creates a single XML file and copies all your thumbs and fanart to separate dirs.
2. Edit the XML file and change all the paths as required (copy and paste).
3. Import.
Cheers,
