Adding Movies to iTunes 11

Storm608 · 02-11-2013, 09:41 AM

I have a bunch of older movies on an external hard-drive and have been adding them to iTunes 11.0.1. iTunes used to store them all in the Movies folder but now they have disappeared. Searching revealed them in a folder called Home Videos.

To get them all under one roof, so to speak, I have to go into Get Info - Options and change them all to Movies again - a nuisance to say the least. The only videos that iTunes recognizes natively are ones purchased from iTunes.

Is there anyway to tell iTunes through Terminal to default all video files to the Movies folder and if so, what's the command?
