Hmm, if I understand this is working now. I mean when you add new file to your "music path" it'll be automatically added to collection. So I'll mark this as resolved.. New entries do not seem to appear if I make a new subdirectory of a scanned directory and add music files to it. Also I keep my music on a partition which is not mounted at startup. If juk starts at start of KDE then I mount the partition the files do not appear (I don't know if this is easily possible however). No, this actually isn't fixed for directory depths of more than one. JuK is generally recursive with directories and KDirWatcher currently doesn't support this (though it claims to) so I'll hack around this at some point. IMHO it would also be sufficient to trigger a rescan manually, e.g. by FILE->RESCAN DIRECTORIES. It would be sufficient to be able to rescan manually, but if JuK would this automatically it can be no harm (if one can choose if you want it or not). I think on slow machines it could be unwanted. But in general: this feature is important. |
