Is there a way to move shows in BTV?

I know I can do this in the web admin, but is there a way to move shows into different folders from BTV interface? I know the squeeze has an option to just copy.. but that don't really work for what I want.

Here is what I have and what I want.
Currently, my squeeze is set up to squeeze all non HD automatically. My squeeze is set to squeeze my HD as I tell it to squeeze. So I am using the squeeze feature, thus not leaving the ability to use the copy.

I want to be able to move a show that I have watched to another folder, either to file it, or to another persons folder who has not watched the show yet. Right now I only see this option in the web admin, but thought maybe someone wrote a plug in that could do this. File organization seems like a normal feature that is missing on the TV.

Question.. If I changed my squeeze setup to copy to the folder I want a show to move to, and then select the show and say squeeze, so it sets up to process on off hours, and then change the squeeze back to my normal squeeze process, will it process the copy, or process the squeeze.. thus, will it remember the squeeze confg at the time of setting it.

Hopefully this makes sense.. I want to move files around from the remote

Edit for clarification:
I know I could set up my shows to record to a certain folder, but I don't want that. I record all shows to one main folder and then all low def get squeezed to to a folder (my kids stuff) and all the high def gets watch and dispositioned.. dispositioning from BTV is the problem.

I did test changing the squeeze setting to copy to the folder I want, and then squeezing the show.... it does remember the job as defined, so then I can change it back to my normal squeeze job. This works, but it would be alot easier if there was just a way to files shows.

I don't know a way to do what you're describing. I understand your goal, but don't know a simple way to do it. You could, in theory, setup different folders and manually change the options for a showsqueeze to Copy, but it would be ugly.

I just use Windows Explorer from my laptop -- sharing the drive. That way I can do it while I'm watching another show.
