I'm about to migrate my movies to a new server. the filepath will change. for example: \\nas-1\movies\movie.mkv will become \\movie-server\movies\movie.mkv

is there an easy way to change the filepath or do i have to re-import all of my 2000 movies?

Go to Tools -> FieldManager and replace the desired field (or in all fields).
In order to achieve what is possible, you have to try the impossible over and over again.

Do you wanna change the filepath in the database? Then this should work.
Another possibility would be to add the new path to the device scanner and reimport the codecs. This is the fastest way to change the path automatically.

Tools -> File Manager (Movies)-> Fields Functions -> Replace a Word on Files

This seems to work
