Ok,
If I don't want the move the folder "media", maybe I can create the another folder with name "media" in the opt ? And after this use the link: /opt/media/my_video.avi

It will work ?

No, it wouldn´t work. I tried it, too. So I moved the media directory.
If you move the directory, you save some MB in rootfs!

mhm... for me symlinking was a bit nasty...
i moved /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media to /opt/media.

i tried linking it with full paths in the command:
Code:
ln -s /opt/media /usr/share/hildon-welcome
the media folder again showed up in /usr/share/hildon-welcome but when i wanted to enter it threw an error (don't remember it but something like "no such directory/file"!?)

so i played around in linking different folders and only the videos with full paths... didn't work at all...

then i did:
Code:
cd /usr/share/hildon-welcome
ln -s /opt/media media
and BAM it worked?! o.O

the same issue appeared when trying to symlink my pidgin logs from ~/MyDocs/pidgin/logs to ~/.purple/logs for easy synchronization via mass storage mode. full path didn't work. i had to cd to ~/.purple first.... ^^

its normal that "media" is showed in /usr/share/hildon-welcome
enter in xterm
Code:
ls -l
and you will see that isn´t a directory its only the link to /opt/media

Yes of course!

Just type
Code:
cd /usr/share/hildon-welcome
rm -r media
For deleting the link to /opt/media

Then type
Code:
mv /opt/media /usr/share/hildon-welcome
