    Need to move LOTS of media items

    I need to move lots of media items from one folder into a number of others ... is there a package that would help me do a bulk move of media items ?!

    Yes, I did see that post but isn't a solution (yet?) :-(

    Does anyone know how media items are stored in the database and how they are assigned to a specific folder?

    Media items are... nodes, just as content, so same technique applies to this type of content. Anyway, backup your db before doing any manual db intervention (which I would strongly advice against, but if there's no other options...). Be aware that a manual db intervention may corrupt the *media* stored in cache and probably your Lucene index for media...

    OK, is that more so than for manually manipulating content nodes?

    Maybe I should take a look at the source of the project mentioed in the other post !?
