Title: Want to move media files
Post by: HaWi on April 07, 2020, 05:24:19 pm

I would like to move all my media files (music only) into a new Folder on my NAS. Essentially nothing changes except the top folder ID. What is the most efficient way to point MC to the new folder?
Many thanks!
Hans

Please read these:

If the files are already on the NAS and you're just changing the folder name, it would probably be easiest to just rename the folder through your OS, and then use the tools above to update MC to point to the new location.

If all the files have to be physically copied to the NAS from a current non-NAS location, you have more than one way to do it.  See the links above.
