That's not correct. The Multimedia backup *does* include all the files linked to in Legacy.
The links to where the files were stored at the time you linked them to Legacy are in the Family File itself. It makes it a heck of a lot easier if you have the files in their respective sub-folders in the c:\Legacy folder. The paths to the Documents or LIbraries folder will differ between computers.
