Description ifinci 2003-03-05 14:04:22 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    I Don't Know
Compiler:          gcc 3.2 
OS:          Linux

It would be nice to have the option to re-scan the list of directories for new files (or removed files) without having to quite juk and re-start it.

Thanks,
Ilan

Would it be possible to instead use KDirWatch, to have them pop up automaticly? 
 
That would be nice, but maybe it's too slow if you have a lot of files?

Subject: Re: add re-scan directories option

I just added some code to CVS so that JuK will automatically detect when you 
add files to the directories that you've specified with Open Directory.  So 
even better than rescanning -- it does it automatically.  :-)

Doesn't work for me. If I move a new .mp3 to a directory I've added to a 
playlist before, it won't be recognized, even if I restart juk. The same if I 
remove a file from a given dir. I have to manually add / remove the file to 
get an actual playlist. 
 
I'm using self-compiled juk 1.1.1 with KDE 3.1.2 / Debian unstable.

Sorry, I'm using juk 1.1, not 1.1.1, of course :-)
