Thanks for the tip Ryan! Do you get also the covers and any MusicIP
info and all tags by doing this ? If so does anyone know if this works
also under Windows? How would the command then look? I assume one would
then do this using the run command or a command box then? Haven't had
time to test yet, but will do.

Even if this works, I still think it would be great to have this option
directly in the SqueezeCenter web page as one predefined way of scanning
your music collection, i.e. by user selected folder.
