Play all media files in a directory

I think it would be a good feature to be able to specify a directory & have BSplayer take all the media files in that directory & put them in the playlist.

This is a function available in winamp.

The idea is that when I have a cd with a few media files on it I can simply use this feature to load them all up at once.

So use the playlist feature. Like in winamp.

If you select 10 files and try to execute them, BSPlayer trys to make multiple instances instead of adding all the files to the same playlist, I belive that's the problem.

Bsplayer has the multiple instances as a new feature. This feature can be enabled or disabled. If is disabled, opening the second file automaticaly put the file on the playlist. But you can use drag'n'drop of multiple files on the playlist. After that, save the playlist.

Oh sorry. I think I caused some misunderstanding.

What I meant was that it would be "nice", to have this added to the context menu when right clicking on a dir.

What I would like to do is for example: Rightclick on my cd drive in My Computer & have an item, "Enqueue in BSPlayer".

Currently if I highlight multiple files in the dir I do have this item in the context menu, but it has a small bug in that it reverses the order of the first & second items I choose.

i.e.: I choose: 1.avi, 2.avi, 3.avi
BS Player will have the files in the playlist in the order: 2.avi, 1.avi, 3.avi

Would be nice to get rid of this bug too...
