first of all I very much appreciate the work you do. Media companion is just awsome!
A small wish, would it be possible, to add an option for the movies-section, to just lock the movie and it's data? So that the movie stays in the database with all the previous data even if the file or folder has been moved or deleted and the database is refreshed?
Thanks a lot.

The function you are describing sound like your looking for an offline manager, listing movies even if they are not physically present.
This is not possible in Media Companion, as there is some information we do not store in the moviecache file, also we rely on loading the artwork located with the video file.
Meaning Fanart, Poster, and Actor images (as an example) would not be displayed as they can not be reached.
A similar request was made, and I investigated the possibility, but it became apparent that a good deal of code change would be required. And a high possibility of problems occurred.
For now, I have to say this won't be an option in Media Companion.
