Watch folders in media library

metalliqaz · 10th October 2005, 01:40

I wish there was a "deny" option when configuring watch folders in the winamp media library.

I have d:\MP3 and under that a bunch of category folders. What I would like to do is just add D:\MP3 and then put a deny entry on D:\MP3\Audiobooks because I dont want them in the music listing. But, instead I have to add every folder OTHER than "Audiobooks" which is just a pain.

A better interface would be the one eMule uses when selecting which folders to share, check it out. Its opensource too.

You can prevent them from being displayed in most ML views (except the overarching Local Media view by modifying the querries which dictate what is displayed for each view.

Right click the view (Audiom Video, Most Played, Recently Played, etc) and add the text AND filename NOTHAS "D:\MP3\Audiobooks" to the end of the querry.

Not the ideal solution, but it workd. I hope your not trying to hide porn, heh heh.

Heh, no, not trying to hide pr0n, that is displayed prominently. Im just trying to get rid of junk that adds dozens of meaningless artists and albums to the library view.

Thanks,
