After moving folder, PVD will no longer load posters

(1/2) > >>

supreme:
Hi all...
i formatted my c: and installed a fresh new windows os...I also added a new drive so hard drive path's changed...
anyway - i installed pvd from scracth and restored the .pvd file...I edited pvd inf file to proper paths, but no luck..
the movie list came but with no posters...
my posters are all in jpg's in /posters folder..
why is it such a pain to pvd when formatting?
PVD db and posters cant be saved in just 1 file ? instead of having posters in a seperate dir?
i know theres an option, but i never managed to get it to work
PVD is a great util for dvd lists but when I format, I always loose DB :(

pls help me, i dont want to add poster manually, i have 3500+ titles...


Thanks ???  >:(

Check if the paths in "Preferences -> Folders -> Image folders" are correct.
You can make PVD save all the images in the database file thus eliminating all such problem by setting the option "Save images in database file" in "Preferences -> Miscellaneous". What did not work when you tried using this option?

supreme:
i have 'same for all dialogs' non ticked, open database selected, last used ticked,
and in IMAGE FOLDERS i have POSTERS selected and under it i have E:\MY MOVIES\Posters\ and inside there - is all my posters..
save screenshots is non ticked too..
save images in database file has always been ticked, but it always saved posters in a diff \posters folder instead of inside .pvd file..
thanks for replying, please help me

supreme:
i tought that the.pvd db file contained all the necessary info regarding the poster name..i mean if the movie AVATAR contained a poster named AVATAR11.jpg, and I format windows, it would again look for the jpg named AVATAR11.jpg...just have to set the proper POSTERS dir, and thats it.
But Apparently, its not like that :(

supreme:
any more help?
im still stuck  :o

Thanks!!
