I recently purchased a 2TB External drive. I created a shared folder for video, and have had no problems with new content that I've put in it. However, when I tried to move some files from a folder in my old drive (Video) to the new external drive's folder (Video2), my XBMC install is having a glitch with it. It states the file is no longer in the library, and prompts me to delete it.
Steps I took:
1: Moved TV Show from "Video" to a non-shared folder on the external drive
2: Cleaned library to remove old references to TV Show, which was successful (TV Show disappears from list)
3: Moved TV Show to the shared folder, "Video2"
4: Ran update, which is successful in finding the TV Show in the new location.
Although the database update seems to locate the new location, when I attempt to play the show in library mode, I get the error. I do not get an error when trying to play other files in the same shared folder, so I know the folder is being shared correctly. And if I exit "library mode" I'm able to navigate to, and play the files fine.
If I move the files back to their original location in "Video", then I am able to play them.
I'm hoping there is a simple step I am missing in order to break the association with the old location. I've searched the wiki & the forum, but haven't found an answer yet.
Thanks,
Greg
