Maybe this would be easy possible if the playlist was directory based, like in Apollo. Another player which uses a directory based playlist is QuickPlayer,

From what I can tell, you're the author of QuickPlayer, eh?

d) process all affected songs, remove missing songs only, and add those not yet present in the playlist to the end of the playlist. That way all still existing files stay in position (and no synchronizing of tags is needed, you just would have to scan tags for the new entries)

This is the closest to the method I had in mind.

If you implent, don't forget to add detection of removable devices and add a menu to easliy 'sync' those too.

Most likely will not happen since I think we're starting to get a bit out of scope for Trout.

Thank you very much for your feedback.

yes,
I meant an option to rescan/refresh the folder, thanks

I thought that might be the case.  I'm trying to wrap my head around how to implement such a function, though.  I mean...you can have files from multiple folders in the list so how would I know which folder you want to rescan?  All of them?  Just the selected row's folder?  Is there another player out there that does this in the manner that you like?  I know the latest foobar will automatically watch folders you specify and add/synch the files to its database.  However, it doesn't automatically add them to the playlist. 

Mabye I'm making this more complicated than it seems, but would you mind providing a bit more detail as to how you would like this to work?
