# Replacing DVD styler files when changing platforms

(Asked by: username_0 on 2024-04-23)

I had a DVD Styler file that I created on Windows, with paths starting with `C:\Users\username\`. I am now on Linux and want to change them to `/home/username/`. I searched online but couldn't find an immediate solution. I also right-clicked on a video item and tried adding with the `+` button, but it looks for a subtitle or audio file, not a video file.

How can I change all filepaths on the DVD Styler after changing platform?

A DVD Styler file is simply an XML file, so you can replace the files in your favorite text editor. For example, replace this text on windows:
C:\Users\username

with this text on Linux:
/home/username

If changing from Windows to Unix (macOS or Linux), also replace backward slashes, \, with forward slashes / elsewhere in the file.
Note: you can also use relative paths, e.g. assets/  for an image file in the assets directory sibling to the DVD Styler file, or ../ for one directory above.
