Then again I have to make playlists for all folders and remake them after
adding/removing files. And playlist will always start from first file but I
want to start from any file in a folder and then next videos play
automatically one by one.
It's default behaviour of most hardware dvd players and I don't understand
why it haven't been done it mythvideo yet.
