Greetings fellow enthusiasts. In an effort to save space on my main SSD, I went into each platform and changed the directory for videos to that of another directory on a different hard drive in the same PC. The regular video snaps respect this directory specification, and download to where I designated (D:\Videos\MAME) when I run "download metadata and media", however the theme videos do not, and populate in (C:\Users\\LaunchBox\Videos\MAME\Theme).
Is there a separate option to designate where the theme videos should be stored?
I suppose I could just move the theme videos over when this completes, however i'm uncertain as to why the theme videos don't respect the video folder path I set when I edited the path in 'edit platform'.
Thank you all very much in advance.

so all of the fancy theme videos go over to C:, despite choosing the d: drive. If I move them over to the D:\videos\mame\themes, they aren't detected by BIGBOX, only if they are in Launchbox\videos\mame\themes. I set BIGBOX to prioritize theme videos, and they only get picked up if in C:. All of the regular snaps download to my d: drive correctly, and get picked up by BIGBOX based on me setting the video folder to d:
I could always just copy and paste them over to d: and just overwrite the regular snaps, as I prefer the fancier ones anyway.
