Scanning Suggestion

Could you add a checkbox to include/Exclude subfolders?

My problem is that I have alot of folders in my movie folder, including coollector itself.
When it scans, it takes a while, going through all the image files. Plus it picks up things
I don't want added. Then you have to sort through all the files accepting the ones you want.


On a side note: How have you been? It has been a while since I bugged you!

Sorry, it's a standard Windows dialog, I can't customize it.

I'd have to add one more dialog, just to ask the user if he wants to include subfolders, which is "yes" 99.99% of the time.

Needless to say that I don't really like this option :roll:

Why did you do that ? Couldn't you change your directory structure ?

I'm fine, but this year doesn't start very well. It's been a continuous series of bugs and technical problems. It's like a curse... And as a result, the program doesn't evolve as fast as I'd wish.

I didn't think of that. I have writen small programs in VB, and always used the "windows dialog", never could figure out how to do the dir structure.

But anycase that is fine.

I guess I can change it. I just had everything organized into 3 main dirs.

Movies
Music
Pictures

I will create another, no big deal.

Don't worry, this is the year! Everything well come together and boom, you will be rolling!

Glad to see you are making yourself a little loot!

You're using the portable version, aren't you ?

You just have to move the "Coollector" folder outside the "Movies" folder.

That's a relief :D

Now that I've solved my bug problems, I'm back to working on the skin system, and I count on you to create some nice skins ;)
