    Sounds great!
    I just un-installed song-bird but if the feature will be added soon I will definitively try it again!

    Thank you for the info!

    =)

    Well... That is probably one way to do it but then it is kind of useless having a huge software handling your media catalogus, instead I could use a small application that just plays my fils on a double-click.

    And one thing I don't want is the stupid way of how iTunes handles your media if you choose to let iTunes change the catalogues etc - then it renames every single file totally into some technical names.

    Preferably, I am looking for some kind of software that hashes your media content from several folders and by doing a refresh of the hash, it updates the catalogue in the media player library...

    If something like that is constructed for the Songbird software, then I will start using it.

    Refresh/update of library content?
    Refresh/update of library content?
    I would like to be able to change folder names etc, on my drive where I keep my music files, and then be able to update my music library in songbird. When I try to do so, the songs are still displayed but they can't be played - most likely since the pathway to the file has changed.

    I.E. I have several folders in my "Music" folder on drive J:\.
    Let's say that I want to change the folder name "J:\Music\crap\" to "J:\Music\sorted crap\".
    All the songs in the folder "J:\Music\crap\" have already been added to the Songbird library by the function "File >> Import Media". After changing the folder name to "sorted crap", I want to refresh my library in Songbird. How can I do that? How can I get it to work?

    How can I have songbird keeping track of changes in my Music-folders?
    I experience the same problem as in iTunes - it is impossible to get rid of songs that no longer are valid due to changes in folder structure. Even worse, I can't even add the new path since Songbird seem to ignore duplicates (the files under the new pathway are added later and therefore they are ignored!?).

    Someone help me out please!
