When I use the file system to store items from the Media Library, I can see that each item stores either an absolute path or one that is relative from the webroot - not a path that is relative from the Media.FileFolder setting.

This means that I cannot use the same data in dev and live if they have a different Media.FileFolder (which they do).

Is there a way to configure Sitecore so that the path of every item in the Media Library is relative to the Media.FileFolder?

You are able to configure virtual folder in IIS that will point to absolute location on your server, e.g.: "SharedMedia" folder that point to "C:\SharedMedia". Then you will be able to configure Sitecore use this virtual folder as location for media files:

<setting name="Media.UploadAsFiles" value="true">
<setting name="Media.FileFolder" value="/SharedMedia">

There are more detail how to do it in this article.
