I have a PC running Windows 7 Home Premium x64 set up as a media server where I store my DVD rips. I play them with my Patriot Box Office (PBO) media player. I have the movie Alien ripped as files in the directory named Alien which is in turn stored in a directory named SciFi. I also want to have the movie Alien appear in the Horror directory so I created the following symbolic link to do so: mklink /D "F:\Movies\Horror\Alien" "F:\Movies\SciFi\Alien". After creating the link I could see the files in the F:\Movies\Horror\Alien directory from Windows Explorer with no problem. But my Patriot Box Office saw the directory F:\Movies\Horror\Alien as empty. I tried using NTFS junction points instead and they worked but neither Flexraid nor SnapRaid, the programs that I want to use to protect my file rips support NTFS junctions. Any ideas as to the problem and how to fix it?
