So I tried removing and re-adding the folders to no avail. The permissions
seems ok as well - in fact I just changed the folder to a 777.

So the weird part is, under storage group, there is NO path to anything,
and yet it keeps showing me the Movies i had. And doesnt seem to like the
folder that have all the TV shows.

Where is it pulling all my movies from?  And why doesn't it like the TV
folder? I almost want to move the TV folder and make it a sub folder under
the Movie one, but i think it's best to first find the problem...
