How to play movies from external hard drive?
Movies take up a lot of space on my Mac. I have a 1TB thunderbolt external hard drive which backs up my entire iTunes library.
Ideally i'd like to keep music and tv shows on my mac but have the movies only on the external and when I want to watch a film plug in the external. How do I get iTunes preferences to read the external location for movies but keep everything else from my mac iTunes library as it currently is?
In iTunes preferences > advanced
you can only change the location for 'iTunes Media' which is its entirety...
