Improvements to Watch Folder Process
Hi, great work on MIXO, just signed up to GOLD again and tonnes of improvements including the watch folder :-) I have a few wants/needs for the watch folder implementation that I would like your view on/or to build.
I think the watch folder should/could be used as a filter to the main library. That is how I would like to use it.
1. MIXO watches folder for new music, displays this under watch folder but doesn't show under All tracks or recently added as the tracks haven't been listened/checked yet.
2. MIXO highlights any tracks in the watch folder which are possible duplicates for tracks already existing in the library. Maybe add to right-click menu the option to 'See duplicate info' and then from this pop-up determine which file to keep, showing vital info such as file type, bitrate, size etc.
3. The right-click context menu adds the option to 'Move file & Add to library', this will move the file from the watch folder location to a folder of the users choice set under the watch folder advanced settings. Once the file is moved the track is added to the library (track will now appear under recently added and all tracks) and the track is removed from the watch folder.
Note: Although the tracks remain in the watch folder, they are still synced and treated as if in the library allowing listening, edits or deletion using any MIXO synced device.
Interested to know your thoughts, I think this would be an amazing addition and help the DJ workflow/process of listening/processing new tracks. If the above isn't your vision then if I could simply have the option in the context menu to move a file from the watch folder to a location specified under settings then I could settle for that, haha
Thank you :-)
