hi freevo list a month ago I promised to send a patch to solve my problem: 'freevo cache' descends down to 'hidden' dirs and I see not the reason since freevo itself do not show them... btw, I use hidden dirs for storing my original/raw fotos from my camera and in the normal dir a oriented/downsized copy.
so here I have a solution for 1.7.3 and also for 1.7.4: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $diff mediainfo.py freevo-1.7.4/src/util/mediainfo.py 578c578 < not os.path.basename(dirname)[0] == ".": --- > not os.path.basename(dirname) in ('.xvpics', '.thumbnails', '.svn'): -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- in the original code only some hidden dirs are excluded, but I prefere a solution where no hidden dirs are cached at all... -> what do you think about this? thanks and gruäss Andreas Am Montag, 12.
