paulb Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Hi everyone, I've browsed through the forum and I haven't been able to find an answer to my question, so hopefully this isn't a repeat. I've noticed over the last couple of shows that I've programmed that once I update from my programming laptop to the two playback servers that the content is being loaded onto the C: drive of the machines. Is there a way that I can change where the show's are stored on the playback machines? Or do I simply re-install WATCHOUT onto the D drive? We're currently running version 5.5.1 on the playback machines. Any input would be great! Thanks! Paul 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Fahl Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Use the -ShowsPath command line option, as described here (it's also available in v5): http://academy.dataton.com/wo6/Command%20Line%20Options.xhtml#toc_marker-15-1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedroR Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Use the -ShowsPath command line option, as described here (it's also available in v5): Just checking, is it -ShowsPath, as it is in the referred link, or -ShowPath, as it is referred in other topic somewhere on this forum? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Leong Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Just checking, is it -ShowsPath, as it is in the referred link, or -ShowPath, as it is referred in other topic somewhere on this forum? Good question...but in this case, it does not seem to make a difference. '-ShowPath' and '-ShowsPath' will both work. Bear in mind that the option is only available to Display PCs. From one of my earlier posts, it did not work for me because I tried it on a Production PC shortcut. My boo-boo, then. Wiser now .

Mike Fahl Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 The official name is -ShowsPath, as stated in the docs. I believe -ShowPath is still also supported for historical reasons, but shoul be considered deprecated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
