Description Wujek Bogdan 2007-11-29 15:00:00 UTC

Version:           2.0 (using KDE KDE 3.96.0)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux
OS:                Linux

Is it possible to port view by directory structure in database browser?
I know there is built-in disk explorer... but it is not the same.
why not include sorting by directory in database browser?
The same feature provides foobar2000 player for win (btw my favorite player;)) and some of MPD clients.
browsing my media collection is much more comfortable.... especialy for Various Artists.

take a look at this topic >>> http://amarok.kde.org/forum/index.php/topic,13694.0.html
and lycoloco's post. he described the problem very clearly.

ps. sory for my english.

As I said in the thread, I don't see the advantage over using the file browser. From what I understood, Lycoloco seemed to be saying its better for it to be in the database because its in the database.

There aro LOT of advantages.
for example if music colection isn't tagged, than database browser looks awful.
take look at lycoloco screenshot above
