Quick question

I have a recorded program that I want to keep, but the EPG was completely wrong (I lucked into it, trying to record something else). Therefore, it's named (and described, in the program details) incorrectly in my archive. I would like to rename it, but I don't think there is a way to do this within Sage. Correct me if I am wrong.

That said, could I do the following: go into Windows Explorer on the server, make a copy of the file (no converting/transcoding, just a copy/paste of the PC file), rename the copy to what I want it called, and then go into Sage and delete the original (wrongly-named) file? Once I refreshed my media, the new copy of the file would just show up in "Videos" under its new name, right (which would be fine)?

You can use Nielm's webserver to Edit the show details... Name description etc... That will also cause a rename of the file also.

Nice! I haven't used the webserver for anything other than showing people my Sage setup while at their house. I need to check out those features that I didn't know it had.

Unfortunately, I can not access the webserver at work. Well, it's actually probably "fortunate".
