    Frozeder
    Index manager for media ("Update index" & "Details" feature)
    I'm using Boxee for an day now, and I found this project really, but really interesting.
    My first worry came very soon, and it's something that can be easily rectified.

    The way Boxee manage his index is a little bit cloudy ; We don't know if the indexes are updated at Boxee startup, each day, (or once a year ?? :-P)...
    That's why I propose an "Update index" button in the options, that offers you multiple choices of the way you want to update the Index, such as :

    == Update all Index ==
    == Update indexed files in local disks ==
    == Update indexed files in removable disks ==
    == Update indexed files in local network ==
    ...

    or
    == Update all ==
    == Update index 1 ==
    == Update index 2 ==
    ...

    When you have selected, a message could appear, saying :
    __________________________________________________
    update files names and :
    [ ] Music data from internet (covers, uncompleted tags...)
    [ ] VIdeo data from internet (covers, titles...)
    [ ] Pictures tags (read and update tags)
    __________________________________________________

    Another feature that can be added is the description of each indexes :

    how many audio files,video, pictures...
    total audio time,
    size taken by files that appear in the index
    and more...

    I let you decide if this is a good idea :)

    P.S. : If you have any comment, please feel free to post !
