Description Runar Ingebrigtsen 2004-08-17 09:01:50 UTC 
When starting Rhytmbox it doesn't scan the default music folder, so when new
songs are dumped in the default folder, they have to be manually added to the
Rhytmbox library.
Comment 1 Anders K. Madsen 2005-09-07 14:54:24 UTC 
Yup! This is definitely something that's been bothering me too...
Please, for the love of God, just add some "Refresh library" menu entry to the
0.8.x branch - it doesn't have to be super-fast - it just has to do better than
nothing... Nothing worse than when you've just added like 100 songs from your
friends iPod and then have to either add them manually (drag n' drop from
Nautilus) or empty the entire library and import it again...
Comment 2 James "Doc" Livingston 2005-09-07 15:50:26 UTC 
If you use "Import folder" again, it should pick up the new tracks and skip over
any that are already in the library.
