[QUOTE="HawkMan, post: 633796, member: 68849"] Win7 libraries do have ull database function with metadata and all that, not just joined folders(that'd be smart folders (a.k.a saved searches) which where introduced with Vista). WMP on windows 7 doesn't use it's own library, it uses the win7 liraries. in fact withthe added explorer library fucntionality, libraries are almost more powerful in explorer than in WMP. But as I said, I'd be happy to be able to add them as joined folders as well. But frankly, it would make more sense for MP imho when on win7 to make use of the libraries that are already there and are just as powerful, instead of adding a secondary library. Or maybe I'm the only one who thinks it's unecessary to have his media library duplicated across - internal windows library - MP - Foobar - SE X10 media app (unecessary since I don't use it anyway, but for the regular plug and play people it's probably better to use this) I suspect someone could make a plugin that uses the Win7 liraries for media anyway, and someone probably will though :) I'll use it anyway of course (not like there are any good alternative that does DVBC anyway :p), I just find it nicer and tidier if stuff plugsinto stuff allowing things to work together and share and nice and friendly like :p [/QUOTE]
