Medias Explorer

Purpose  

Medias Explorer is used to open a media in the Media Player.

Open media / directory

• Double-Click

• Click to select then press the Open button or Enter key (Modifiable in Settings)

• Right-Click to show the context menu and click Open

• Long-Click to  show the context menu and click Open

You can also open a directory by typing in the inputField.
If you try to open an no non-existent directory or any directory outside of Medias location path, an error will be shown (Can be disable in Settings)

Medias History

The program keep the number of time you open each media and the date of last use.
So I have to give a way to reset that :

• To reset the history of a single media, right-click  on it to show the context menu and click Reset History

• To reset the history of all medias int current directory, click on the menu button and click Reset All History

Thumbnails

Thumbnails extraction

When you open MyLittleBastard, the programme browse all videos in your root directory and verify if a thumbnail exist, then extract it if necessary.
When all thumbnails has been extracted, a message informe you. (Can be disable in Settings)
The thumbnails are saved in the thumbnails directory. (Editable in Settings)

Thumbnails in Media Explorer

Each time you open a new directory in the Media Explorer, the thumbnail of each media in the that directory are loaded. But when you switch to another directory then return to the first, all thumbnail must be load again. It's more memory effective like that. To keep thumbnail in memory, enabled the option Keep thumbnail in memory in the Settings.

Progress bar

Each time you open the program and some thumbnails as to be extract, a progress bar will apear a left side of the screen. (Only for 10 or more thumbnails)
It will disapear when all thumbnails are extracted.

Display modes

To access the display mode open the menu. (see image above)
By default, the program will remember the display mode for the next time. (Can be disable in Settings).

• List (File name only)

• Icon (File name + Thumbnail)

I added some  ways of sorting. Here is all sorting type :

• By file name

• By filtered file name (This filter only consider numbers and letters and ignores all other characters)
