Media Library Update Method Proposal

Postby JoeJuice » 06 Jan 2009 23:07

It sure would be nice to have a convenient way of updating the media library database (to reflect added or removed items) more along the lines of what Winamp has (a re-scan folders button). It would also be nice to be able to set whether or not the individual library folders were "watch folders" i.e. any changes in the folders is automatically reflected in the media library database at startup or at regular intervals (user definable).
