I have been meaning to request these features for some time now, but didn't. Slimserver 7 would be a good opportunity.
A. Option to automatically traverse folders when playing using 'Browse Music folder'. Consider I have music organized in directories by Artist, with each album by that artist in a directory within the Artist directory and individual tracks being files within the Album directory. Consider 3 Artists P1, P2, P3. P1 has two albums A1, A2. P2 has three albums A3, A4, A5. Album A1 has Tracks T1 through T10, A2 has tracks T11 through T15, A3 has tracks T16 through T25. Use case 1: If I browse (Browse music folder) to Album A1, and play Track T8, once T8 has been played, Slimserver will play T9 and T10. And then STOP (assuming no repeat setting is in force). What I would like is an option where, Slimserver will "move up one folder" and descend into the next (lexicographically) folder and play the Tracks in that folder. Thus, after Track T10, it should play T11 in Album A2. Use case 2: This is an extension of Use case 1. After Slimserver finishes playing T15 in Album A2, it should move up one folder, "discover" that Album A2 is (lexicographically) the last directory under Artist P1, move up one more folder, and descend into the P2 albums A3, A4, A5 in lexicographical order and continue in this way. B. Have an option to specify which folder hierarchies should be scanned and indexed in the Tag database (Artists, Albums etc). I have a bunch of files organized in some way using directories, but the files contain either inaccurate or meaningless tags and I do not want these tags to be scanned and "pollute" the tag database.
