Alias files on Multimedia Drive

keryl · 2012-01-20 11:06:21

Hi When I connect my Multimedia Hard Drive to my Mac I setup Alias of files on my Multimedia Hard Drive to another folder on the Hard Drive. Works great. When I hook my hard drive up to the tv, the Alias are all gone. Any remedy for this? Any help is appreciated.:eek:

How would your TV know what an alias is? Alias ( like shorcut on PC ) is a pointer file which the operating system recognises that locates the original file.

It wouldn't, it's a TV. Is there a way around this?
