Hi Lucster,

In 7.5 we switched from using VPP for media files and instead use the new media system (which now uses a blob provider to store files). Now files are content just like pages. You can get a content reference from a URL by using the UrlResolver.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Tony! that helped. So the approach is something like this:

Public bool FileExists(string path){
 var urlResolver = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<UrlResolver>();
                UrlBuilder url = new EPiServer.UrlBuilder(path);
                var content = urlResolver.Route(url);
                MediaData mf = content as MediaData;

                if (mf != null && mf.BinaryData != null)
                {
                    
                    return true;
                }
                return false;
}

return mf != null && mf.BinaryData != null;

Sure thing ;)
