The problem is how to order them. I don't want to go browsing through 4 different subdirectories (mounted the drives as dirs) every time I want to see what I have. I could order them alphabetically, but since I'm buying new DVD's it would be a mess.
Therefor I thought it would be a nice idea to create shortcuts to every DVD, put those shortcuts in 1 directory and have the whole list there with all the DVD's I have. If I want to view one I would just click the one I like and it would automatically direct to the right drive & dir. I wouldn't have to remember where I stored each single one, since I only have to create a new shortcut every time I backup a DVD.
I haven't been able to get MP to 'see' the shortcuts, so how do I do that? Is MP even capable of doing that? |
I've been trying to catch up if anything came up during new MP versions, but I can't see anything. I tried adding a *.lnk file in the show video files view, but clicking that one doesn't work.
I hate to bother the undoubtly busy developers team, but it would be really helpful to create a sort of 'hyperlinked' subdirectory which would link to various drives, various shares etc. Following links, even streamed ones possibly, could be a real value adding perspective, given that it's not uncommon for media center users to have more than 1 storage area.
