Location Profiles?
« on: July 24, 2006, 12:50:32 pm »

Here's a feature request...  No other software (that I've come across, at least) supports this, but it'd be a GREAT addition.

I'm using Media Center on my laptop.  It goes between home & work.  Depending on where I am, I have access to different music files.  I would love a way to tell Media Center, "I'm at home, I don't have access to my work files, so don't show them," and vice-versa when I'm at work.

You can have several separate libraries in MC. You can create new libraries and change the active library (File > Library > Library Manager).

Alternatively, you can make two restricted view schemes that use a "Pick files to show" rule. For example, you can use the base folder or a smartlist name or make a custom library field that indicates the file location (e.g. "home" or "work").
