xnappo 1592 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Hi All, I am STILL struggling to figure out why files from my library are getting deleted. I have started backing up my recorded TV every night, but it is the weirdest thing. I have my 'Live TV' box set up like this: D:\Recorded TV <- WMC puts files in here D:\Video\TV Shows <- Script runs nightly to sort into here, this is where MB3 library points to. Now - files in recorded TV are fine. Some of them I don't bother to sort, and they are totally stable. I have another box with the same setup that I used for my movies, that is fine. But, every once in a while, the ENTIRE D:\Video directory is being wiped of all files, leaving the directories behind. I have of course done multiple virus scans etc. I have checked everything I can think of that could delete files. I can't figure it out! Anyway I noticed this morning that I have my 'transcode' directory set to D:\Video. Is there any chance MB3 is super aggressive about cleaning that path? xnappo Edited September 20, 2014 by xnappo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36881 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 yes, you should not configure it like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
