Hey guys!
I just finished building my new, dedicated HTPC to run XBMC on my home theater system, and I'm just getting things going this weekend.
My main question was about organizing all my media. I currently have it spread out across several computers on my network and several NAS devices. I bought a new, dedicated 3TB NAS drive to get started, and I'd like to get all my movies and tv shows on that drive for exclusive use by my HTPC.
Anyone know of some good tools that will help me gather up and move all the content? I've noticed a lot of tools that are good for getting fan art and to rename files, but nothing for shuffling media around the network to get it all to land on one drive. I'd rather not have to do it by hand, because it's a LOT of stuff. Most of the files are organized properly on their respective computers, but it's still several places to manually move things from, making sure to not grab things like the the RAR files from when they were downloaded, for example.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Bob
