Path substitution is a setting in advancedsettings.xml to force XBMC to use different file paths. Starting in XBMC v11 (Eden) it works for most file paths. It works across local and network paths, and even across different network protocols. It can also be used in combination with the special protocol.

Examples

<advancedsettings>

  <substitute>
    <from>SMB://192.168.1.19/Music/</from>
    <to>G:\Music</to>
