I really like using BeyondTV, but hate it that when I move shows out of the default directory, most of the information about the show is lost. I could move them using the web interface, but that is a pita, have to do it one at a time, and it is slow. I wish that the information was retained differently. I keep my videos spread out on five different drives, and when I go to move them into each shows directory would like to keep each shows info.

I am going to go ahead and start porting my Home Automation pages over to IIS again pretty soon. Right now they are accesible on port 8080 using the HS web server, but I much prefer being able to get to it on the standard port 80. Rather than actual control, which would require that I expose the COM interface, I may just export the data to static pages in a virtual directory using php. Will have to take a look at it on my days off.
