<ul></ul><p>(by "arrange that Audacious recognizes symlinks", I meant "arrange that audacious recognizes symlinks for the library folder")</p> Audacious - Feature #943: Being able to add several folders to the library, and arrange that Audacious recognizes symlinkshttp://www.redmine.audacious-media-player.org/issues/943?journal_id=44302022-08-29T09:09:23ZMatt K
<ul></ul><p>Audacity ignores directory symlinks on purpose (changed here <a class="external" href="https://redmine.audacious-media-player.org/issues/892">https://redmine.audacious-media-player.org/issues/892</a>), which makes it impossible to add multiple folders to the library and generally makes it difficult to work with symlinked shortcuts.</p>
<p>It would be great, if there was an option to enable this behavior for users, who are aware of the consequences (potential infinite recursion). The option could be in Settings > Advanced > Playlist > Follow Folder Symlinks.</p>
<p>I wouldn't mind taking a stab at it myself and doing a pull request, but the build instructions are very outdated.</p>
