OK, for the next release (0.7.3) I've re-added "Music folder" to the "More" section. *But* I'm using the "readdirectory" command instead, which is *much* faster. This however has a few differences - if you have more than 1 media-folder, then all of these will be listed under "Music folder", if you only have 1 media folder its contents will be listed - There is no meta-data, so only folder and filenames are listed - No covers will be shown - Only music files, and folders, will be shown. To detect music files I filter on file extension This seems like a reasonable compromise to me, agree? As stated, it is much faster. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cpd73's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66686 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109624 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
