Sprite Backup - exclude files how to question

Well,
I'm using the PC agent for full backup my X50V.
The backup file will be created on my desktop pc.

I'm using 512 SD card on my X50 for some video's, mp3 and Destinator maps.
In order to reduce the backup time ( and size ) and since I already have those mp3's and videos on cd, I want to exclude the directory that holds them ( or the files it self ).
How do I do that ?

Thanks in advance

Lior

Edit :

Well, I found how to do this from backup option on my PPC
But can it be done from the desktop pc agent ?

Lior

By default, your storage card (and BIS)is excluded, both on the PC Agent and on your PDA. The problem is this medium goes by two different names on each device; on your PDA it's called 'persistent storage' and on your PC it's called 'non-volatile memory'. Go figure....

BIS is excluded? so if I installed my apps in BIS, backup, hard reset, restore, the BIS content / my apps are gone?

actually they should work fine after that. the files in BIS aren't deleted on a hard reset so any program that requires something be place into the registry during installation, the registry would be restored and the program would still be on BIS so it should work.

Well, you can backup from the X50 and you can add the "persistent storage" to the backup from "file management" and you have it backed up...
