Moving media to new drive

[Aeit 0]

Hello,

I have been searching forum and FAQ but can't find answer to my trivial question.

I have multiple drives set up on my PC and over 50 collections plus playlists.

Now I would like to move them to new drive with better folder structure.

How to make it without losing already made collections?

Collections will be dependent on whether you write nfo files with media as Collections are created off the <set> node written to movie item metadata.  If you don't then this info will only exist in the database and a move will lose that data (at least for custom collections).  For provider collections Emby would/should get the info from provider again and rebuilt them.

Playlists are another story as they will have a specific path in the playlist.xml assuming we are talking about Emby created playlists.  They would have to be manually update.
