Automatic music import?

[Ringo]

I'm just wondering why isn't the music importing automatic. If I'm not wrong it used to be. Just seems unnecessary you have to do it manually every time.

If it was removed because scanning for the songs increases the load time for people that don't import music, it makes sense, but maybe add an option in the menu settings like:

[ x ] Auto-Scan music on start

and give us the option?

Sounds more like personal negligence. The dev shouldn't add it specifically because you cannot remember.

That would still be adding the feature wouldn't it?

Sorry to necro this topic, but I think why they do not have it set to import on game start is because they scan through all 199 possibilities of the custom radio directory, to a point where launching the search will slow down even the higher end of specs by a considerable amount.

Not entirely sure if it would be possible with how they currently import the radio files, but it would be nice for it to just stop after the first failed import of a file. So if there is no track1.ogg it would terminate immediately, saving the processing time of any files after track(x).ogg.

+1 for the option to toggle it on/off

There's a mod that includes about 20 different tweaks and this option is one of them. But I really only want this option, not the rest of the tweaks. Hope someone makes one.

Ok, so old post, but FYI for future readers. Toivaradio Enhanced will auto import your songs from the radio folder, supports multiple audio formats and negates the need to rename anything.
