watch multiple folders?

I just had this same question and came across somewhat of a fix while I was reading another thread.

I'm using Ubuntu linux so I'm not sure this works with Windows or other distros of Linux but I'm guessing theres probably an analogous feature that will do the trick. (ie - create shortcuts in windows)

If you make one new folder, and create Links to all of your folders that you want watched and place these links in the newly created folder you should be able to see all of the music you wanted just by watching the one new folder via the dialog box in the Songbird watch folder option.

hope that helps, and I hope you songbird term is able to implement multiple folder watching soon! Kudos for adding this great feature nonetheless!!!

Sadly, for Windows, that doesn't work. Windows can't handle links, as if they would be physically there.
That's a linux thing ;-)

That's a great tick, phlancelot. Works wonders for me. Thanks!

It can be done in windows XP and on, without using additional software, ONLY on a NTFS filesystem. You have to use fsutil.exe in the CMD/shell, it's a feature of the NTFS filesystem, called 'junctions'
Anyway, I personally prefer the abovementioned 'NTFS Link' to fsutil, by a large margin!

This will also work in OS X if you create a symbolic link via command line, rather than a Finder alias.

Trickykid. Might need to be a Hardlink..

@madagabz, you can also use administrator tools=>computer management=> Disk management and a mount.

Tested it in the past
