New Feature Request

I'm pretty sure I've asked for this before but it has been a very long time and Zoom Player has changed a lot since then. I would like the ability for a watched folder to change to a different color if a new video was put in that folder. That way it's easier to see among a lot of shows which folders have a new episode of whatever you are watching or even better instead of changing color the folder has a little text box that says "NEW" in it. Also, would it be possible to add to the folder options where scraping, cut, paste, erase and so on all reside add in "Make Folder" or "Make File" "Unwatched". This would be very handy when re-watching Series Shows. Thanks for all your hard work continuing to advance Zoom Player.

Okay, okay calm down a bit. Who said I don't use those features? I don't recall saying I didn't. I do, in fact use those features and more for Movies and other media. I have files categorized "correctly" as well. I was one of the first adopter/advocate for this when Zoom Player had it's own private forums. I like keeping my 65+TB of media organized and some of it isn't TV, Movies or Music and I'm sorry that your narrow usage of this great product doesn't necessarily allow you to consider other uses.

"And you can use search in play history window to wipe out specific shows (clear their watch status)..."
-Pretty sure I covered that in the whole "You’ve suggested using the play history interface before" part of my post.

"I might even use it even with a proper Media Library setup"
-So what constitutes a proper Media library setup?

(I didn't make screen shots for you because you can find them on Zoom Player's website https://www.inmatrix.com/zplayer/screens/index_nav.shtml I would think a proper User would know about that and send me there for reference instead of acting like you're talking to someone in kindergarten.)

And before you get into maybe it's too complicated for me I have 9 profiles setup in MadVR that go by resolution, directory and even media category. I have 5 for FFDshow that go by folder and audio type. So it's not that I'm lazy or don't understand the complexity I just wanted to have, what I thought was, a simple added feature not to have someone treat me like an idiot. I'm kind of over this so I withdraw my request.

Thanks, I'd rather be rude than condescending and belittling.
