Dead Hard Disk - Help with Movie files - steve11 - 2020-06-21

Hi guys, hope you are all well.

One of my Disks died and I was wondering if there is a way I can find out which movies that were on the disk have been lost.

Is there a scanner that will tell me YES the movie is in the KODI database but NO the movie file no longer exists/can be found.

Any help much appreciated.

If you know the letter of the drive, you create a smart playlist using path E: as an example
