As it is, adding files to /Music (the default Music checking location) and then opening Rhythmbox DOES get them discovered by default now. I'm pretty sure this has been the case for a while now. Having an option available to decide whether or not to do this scanning for new files added on rhythmbox startup is miles better than having no choice in the matter. I would strongly advise against removing customisability.
With the desired behaviour already implemented by default and suggesting removal the option of the ability to change this behaviour, i move that this bug is invalid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144334 Title: Rythmbox should scan for new music on start by default Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: In Progress Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application: New Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: For the sake of usability, Rhythmbox should have the preference option of "Watch my library for new files" enabled by default so people do not have to remember to re-import their collection.
