External USB as Primary Drive - Where do I put my MOVIES?
#1
I'm a noobie (I know), and I had all the movies playing from my external 2TB usb drive, but I have since changed the ATV1 to use External USB Drive as Primary Drive... now I cannot figure out where to FTP my movies to, and/or how to find them from XBMC! I have searched and searched. Could someone please throw a noobie a bone and give me the path I should use for this? Thanks!

So I found the path to my Movies:

/mnt/Scratch/Users/frontrow/Movies/External Media

I can see them and play them from the file manager. But I can't get them to show up under the XBMC menu under "Movies" as they used to. Can anyone help me? How do I point XBMC to look at that path for "Movies"? Or, do I need to upload my movies into some other folder?

Figured it out... only posting in the hopes it will help someone else with the same problem someday.

I had to create a Folder inside "External Media" called "Movies". Then XBMC did its thing and grabbed ahold of the Movies and listed them all properly. So, the final path is:

/mnt/Scratch/Users/frontrow/Movies/External Media/Movies

I'm guessing the same Folder convention will follow for "Music" and "Pictures"
