Support several sources of media #1333

Closed dronnikovigor closed 3 weeks ago

dronnikovigor commented 3 weeks ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'd like to have ability to select several sources of media. E.g. I have following sctructure of files:

 /media
  /photos
    /library
    /unsorted
  /videos
  /movies
  /documents
 ...

Now I specify in Memories to scan /media/photos/library, but I'd also like to add /media/videos as a source. If I specify /media it will scan all medias in all folders, that I don't need in my timeline. Also it's not convinient to add .nomemories to each new folder under root (eg. in /media/movies or /media/documents, it also adds visual garbage).

Describe the solution you'd like In general settings (left downside) add ability to add list of folders to scan (now it's only one folder)

You could select /media as "Folders Path" and select /media/photos/library and /media/videos as "Timeline Path". For the latter, multiple folders are supported. This will ensure media from the other folders is not shown in the timeline. It will still be shown in the folders view though.

Oh, I see, makes sense. Thanks
