Use this top block:
Code: Select all
$locs = "Q:\Movies|R:\Movies|Y:\Movies";
$dirs = quicksearch(">[^\subs] /d", $locs);
$dirs = formatlist(regexreplace($dirs, "^.:.+?\\"), "s", <crlf>);
$dirs = regexreplace($dirs, "^.+\\", <space 2>);

I tried the script as well and have a question.
If multiple folders from the same path are to be processed, do you always have to specify the absolute path for each folder?
Code: Select all
$locs = "Z:\Filme|Z:\Bruce Lee Collection|Z:\Bud Spencer_Terence Hill|Z:\Serien";

Yes, why?

I was just wondering whether, once you specify the directory to look in, you can then use only relative paths—and if so, what separator should be used.
I just wanted to understand this for myself.
Thanks.
