Is there an option in v5 to add multiple Recordings Directories with the spill over function that was available in v4 please?
I searched but did not see, tried to add another Dir but it then changes to that, does not add to it.

Behind the scenes the same functionality exists, but it's not shown in the UI currently.

If you edit the config.xml, copying in your <DefaultDirectoryChoice> and <ExtraRecordingDirectories> settings from v4 config.xml, it'll behave that same way.

Thanks sub 

However I checked the config.xml in C:\Users\Public\NPVR (v4) vs the config.xml in C:\Users\Public\NPVR (v4) and the Recordings section already has the same entries in both configs; yet the Shows don't show up in v5?

<DefaultDirectoryChoice>spread</DefaultDirectoryChoice>

<ExtraRecordingDirectories>ArchivedMovies~G:\ArchivedMovies~NPVRVids~Z:\NPVRVids~</ExtraRecordingDirectories>

[EDIT] I exported the shows from v4 and imported them to v5. Will see how new shows get on. Cheers. k

Yeah, those settings only affect where future shows are recorded. The app does look there for files it doesn't know about, and automatically add them as recordings. You'd have import recordings if you want them to appear. (or copy your existing npvr.db3 into the v5 data directory)
