NOTE: Beta testers are added in a limited & subjective manner as I can only support so many people as part of the beta test program to keep it useful for my needs.

Unless I think you're going to be helpful, not all requests will be accepted but might still be later on. Remember that beta testing is to help me & the limitations currently works for my needs for this project.

Author Topic: Disable playlist indexing archives, playlists and specified file types  (Read 136 times)

I have been using WinAmp for a couple decades and have gotten around most of its quirks and bugs but recently it has decided it likes to crash when clearing playlists (which is necessary for indexing or loading a new playlist), hence my finding WACUP.

I very recently discovered WACUP and am thrilled that this project exists!

I keep an extensive collection of music and I have selections archived to prevent them from being indexed during playlist creation.  However, since I have started using WACUP I found that it indexes those archives that I don't want played normally.

Also, I had to delete all the smaller playlists that I have inside subfolders as they are indexed, producing duplicate entries.

Could there be an option to have WACUP ignore particular file extensions to stop indexing undesired filetypes, whether archives, playlist files, or video or audio types?

Thank you!  Your work is much appreciated!
