Ok. Fair enough. Any chance it can be made to pick up stuff as it
appears, or is the directory to be considered 'managed' territory
in the future?
The one thing that got me hooked in freevo (vs mythtv when I got
my htpc) was the transparency it gave when comparing the its view
of the world with what I could see myself with a simple 'ls' and 'cat'.
Entrusting mythtv's sqldb with all my metadata was not really an
appealing prospect.

The "Manage Recordings" menu. Whenever I get a batch of avi:s from
somewhere, I place them in a folder (mkdir, cp), to be viewed like any
other show.
