Feature: Multiple Library Folders ?

Open omars44 opened this issue 10 months ago • 4 comments

I can see there is only 1 folder allowed to import local music library.

I'd be happy to contribute this feature, just please point me to the right direction :)

Thanks

Hey 👋 I am not sure if I understand correctly On MacOs this is the tested and expected behavior for me:

Chose any directory where you have your music, and all sub directories are used

Hi @Feichtmeier

First, thanks for this amazing effort. I kinda of put 2 issues together, so it sounds confusing.

What I meant is that, If I have multiple directories, each on a separate drive on the hard disk for instance, I can only import one of them, as the settings has 1 folder to set as the local music library

Okay this should be possible, though I must say that it's really uncommon. But since you are the second person who requests this I'll give it a go. But I need to improve the importer first. When I'm done I'll support multiple locations :) best regards

This would be perfect for me as well, since I often have different collections of audio/video files in different locations (cloud folders, music library, video library, etc).
