VFG - Virtual Folder Group
With VFG you can configuration can group 2 or more folders into a virtual folder that are accessed by VFG0: to VFG9:
What you see when you brose to the VFG0: is either the content of the folder that you configured as primary or an aggregation of all folders.
If it aggregate the contents it will not show duplicates.. If file 1.txt is located in folder1 and 2.txt is folder2 the VFG0: will show 1.txt and 2.txt
If you copy files FROM the VFG#: it will read the file from the Primary folder if the file is located there. else it will take the next one folder configured.
If you copy a file TO the VFG#: it will write the file to *ALL* locations that are configured as writeable.
If you delete a file it will be deleted from all locations in the group.
To configure it go to
Menu > Configuration > FileSystem Plugin Settings > "FS-Virtual Folder Groups"
Right now the error handling is not 100% correct.
So please report issues, when it fails, what you think is missing and so on. I really need you feedback if this is usable for you and want features around it you need.
If you show the shell context menu on a VFG item. YOu have a VFG submenu where you can see status and also sync file from primary to the other.
BTW.. VFG will also create its own Log Window so you can see exactly what it does.. Show log using Ctrl+L and there will popup a tab for the device when it is used
