I'm not quite sure how best to word this, but in my current situation, I have a couple of hard drives in my computer, one of which is filled to capacity with backed up TV shows. So, many TV shows have spilled over onto the second HDD. On the first hard drive, I have it organized into separate folders of Comedy and Drama, and then the various folders of TV shows inside. On the second hard drive, I also have it organized into Comedy and Drama, just like on the first hdd. However, when I created a bookmark in My Videos in XBMC linking to both locations, I see Two folders named Drama and also two folders named Comedy. What I would like is...if two different folders of the same name show up in the same bookmark, if they could instead be combined and in the end the XBMC user would only see ONE folder named Comedy and Drama, or whatever might be the case, instead of multiples, but all the files contained within the Comedy folders on both hdd's would show up in the single folder named Comedy or whatever showing up in XBMC. I probably could have explained this a lot more simply, but if you need any clarification, let me know. I imagine I'm not the only person that could take advantage of a function like this. Anyway, thanks in advance, despite whatever the response may be.

You could create two bookmarks - One Comedy and the other Drama.

Both bookmarks linking to both shares.

Like windows, you can do "deep mapping", so it will mean you dont have to create multiple shares, just one upper level share and connect to the lower directories

It's on the todo list and mostly done. There are some problems with and thumb support which I need to correct.
