[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 1333"] Has anyone thought of using a database for displaying files rather then directly browsing directories? With a database style file system you can store the path to a file (unc, nfs, drive letter, http, etc). You could also allow multiple directories (and drive) be merged into one directory under MediaPortal. With a database you could also store all the information about a file within it – IMDB, ID3 and other user editable information. You could also have a rating for a file that could be used in Parental Control. An explorer like GUI would be nice to for managing where files are in the database, for adding them to it, removing files and verifying files are still there. [/QUOTE]
