I have noticed two differences in the beta scanning compared to the 6.x
version:

1. When the music folder is changed, a rescan takes place immediately.

2. When new music is added to the current music folder, and the folder
is accessed from the Squeezebox, the entire folder (apparently) is
rescanned.

The combination of these two behaviors is unfortunate as it leaves the
user with no quick way to listen to newly added music.

Previously, this could be achieved by one of these methods:
1. Change the music folder to the folder with the new tracks.
2. Copy the new folder to the current music folder and then browse to
it from the Squeezebox and then play it.

Either of these methods only rescanned that one new folder and left the
current library alone. This was quite convenient.

Will there be an easy way to play new music without a complete rescan
in version 7? It would be a shame to lose that capability.

Thanks.
