Description Matti Lindell 2006-06-27 05:39:12 UTC 
It would be great if media Library feature could be expanded to support multiple locations instead of just one.

Additionally, nice feature would be that one could specify what extensions would be included/excluded from media Library, for example
included: * 
excluded: *.wma; *.aac;
Comment 1 James "Doc" Livingston 2006-06-27 06:16:40 UTC 
The backend already supports this (and can be set with the gconf key /apps/rhythmbox/library_locations), it's just we don't have any UI for it.

If someone can come up with some decent UI, that doesn't make it more complicated for people who only have one folder, it's likely to get done.
Comment 2 Jonathan Matthew 2006-06-27 23:13:25 UTC 
Can you explain why you'd like to be able to specify included/excluded extensions?  It doesn't seem very useful to me.

I installed pitfdll cvs plugins which support .rm format. However .rm support is not good enough to use right now. I don't want to uninstall piffdll just because of .rm. So I would like to filter out .rm files when importing.
