Hi
This is a shot in the dark but I really want to start using air video server.
Lets see if I can explain effectively.
I purchased Air video server last year for the ipad but haven't used it really at all. The main reason being that my files are a mix match between different folders & drives, air video serves them up this way and it quite difficult to find specific videos.
I've got MC to act as a dlna server & have added this to my computer so it shows up like a file structure

I've searched the air video forums about using DLNA, all the topics relate to air video server being a dlna server. What I want is to make MC act as the dlna server and for air video act like a client. When I try to add a new folder to air video, the network location/device (dlna), is nowhere to be seen.
My question, is there such a function within windows similar to symbolic links/junction points, where I can link a random folder to a network location/device (dlna) so that in turn it will behave like any other normal folder and be accessible to air video server?
A long shot I know, but I have to try, air video is pretty much useless to me without consistent easy navigation.
