Contex menu on playlist tab. Please add a command: REFRESH LIST

Hello,

If a playlist tab is based/built from a Windows folder containing audio files, it could be useful to have a command (in context right click menu on the playlist tab) like: REFRESH LIST.
So, in case of the content of this folder (and/or sub-folders) is updated adding/removing audio files, we can easily refresh the playlist without to recreate/rebuild it.
Isn't it?

Thanks and regards.

Hello, samz,

just a hint: the function you are looking for can be done with 3rd party component Playlist Bind.

EDIT: Of course, you can also use foobar2000's AutoPlaylists.
This is HA. Not the Jerry Springer Show.

if your folders are monitored (file>preferences>media library), you can open Library menu>album list. change the view to by folder structure. now find the folder and then right click>create autoplaylist. this playlist will update itself as files are added/removed automatically.
