Add support for severel MEDIAFOLDERS in config.ini
Status: Beta

When having media on several locations in win32 it's a
must to be able to support several MEDIAFOLDER entries
in config.ini. I've added some code for it in the
discussion forum, the code extends the movie module.
The code could be applicable to photo, music and movie
folder.
Attached is my main.php from the movie folder.
Thanks,
Nik

I put Nik's code into the version I'm working on and have also
added windows shortcuts handling. This means that you can
have directories that have shortcuts in them, and OSC will
handle them as if they were the file the shortcut is pointing
to:
- if it's a video file, it shows the video filename and a video
icon, even if the video file is on a remote box (e.g. windows
share)
- if the shortcut points to a directory, it shows the directory
icon
- if the shortcut points to an invalid file, (non-existent or not
a correct media type) it doen't appear.
The only problem right now is that I haven't thought about
how this all gets handled on unix boxes, so I'm pretty sure it
will break if run on unix. Will do more cleaning up to try to
mimimise problems. The other problem is that I've broken
quicklink ability (playing music by pressing 1-9 just after
powerup). Again, gotta get that back in and working.
