remarks:<BR>1. In my opinion Media dirs should be configurable as well. If
there is no configuration saved, then we can use the current logic and just
insert the system dirs for Videos, Pictures and Music. But user should be able
to remove those or add as many arbitrary folders as he whishes. We could think
of making the media dirs SD monitor the changes to those folders in real time
(could the udev plugin provide that?).</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><SPAN class=561591322-04112009> <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>This makes sense. Users should be given the possibility to organise their
media in as many directories and subdirectories as they wish.
System media dirs should only be proposed as an option. It should also be made
straightforward to flag default directories for storing recorded
video, music or snapshots. Those directories should be highlighted in some
way, and reconfigurable directly at the media browser level. And users should be
given the possibility to manage medias (delete, copy,..) directly from the media
browser. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=561591322-04112009><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2> The only fear I've got is a performance issue for those users who
would like to manage huge directories/subdirectories of media. Some sort of
indexing (database) may then become a requirement.Same goes for monitoring
real-time changes in such a situation.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
