I just had to reformat my computer but i backed the videos i got from emuvideos on a external harddrive. Once i get everything back up and going how do i import the videos back to Big Box ?

You can just drag and drop them back to the correct folders in windows, you dont "import" them as such if you already have them.

so if i am right i just create a video folder in the launchbox director and just move them in there?

Well it depends how you backed them up originally, if you just copied the whole video folder elsewhere you can just copy the whole folder back, but if you just have a huge folder with all the videos lumped together then that is more problematic as you would need to sort them.

Yeah in that case then just drag and drop the whole folder into your new install, Launchbox will automatically use them with no further configuration needed.
