Few sugestions

I really love your project, and it's really good the way is organized. I have just a few sugestions that i think are not really hard to implement that would take it to another level.

here they are:
1) Tv Shows:
I Would love to see in the tv show section a special folder, that would be the first one, some thing like "_aired" the underscore is to make it the first, this would have the new episodes from the last 10 days organized by aired date.
2) Last Added:
I think some subfolders would help, organized by the last 3 weeks(each week with a different folder) and then older.
3) Unwatched:
I read in the forum a lot of conversation about this, and this would be really important for movies in my opinion. Could be something that you activate in the console, to track by device or a general unwatch, where always would track watched episodes. It would be really important to that you could configure the percentage of the video is to be considered watched.
4) MultiSubtitles: (This is the harder one to explain)
in the console you should choose your main language, example English.
The Subtitles should all be organized as: {Movie Title}.eng.str or for spanish {Movie Title}.spa.str
In case your movie has more then one subtitle, in the movie folder you would show the movie as {Movie Title} (SPA) or {Movie Title} (ENG)
In case of TV Shows, all the episodes on the main folder wold have the main language or none. For folders with multiple subtitles, it should be created folders for the different languages, with all episodes, but now with the (SPA) flag by the end of the episode name, for example.

This are some of the ideas that i have in mind for now... ;)
I hope i can help improve the software, if there is any clarification needed please let me know.

thanks for the great software.

Regards.

those are some nice ideas, let's see if there are more people requesting these, then I can look into it.

The ** does not mean last aired, but last viewed.

Thanks for the quick answer of you all.

Just to clarify, more then the ideas, what i tried to bring to the table is solutions to themes that we can see everywhere in the forum.
I'm not sure if they are the best way to handle this, but it's thoughts..

Just one more thing that I left out before, cause i think it's really complex and not even know if it's possible to do and latter keep it running.
I'm a huge soccer fan, i live far in chile and i'm Brazilian, so it's really hard to keep track of my team, usually I try to watch the games online and there is a website called rojadirecta.es that shows all the soccer games(links to), from different sources like p2p networks or streaming sites.

It would be wonderful, if we had an interface for it to get the direct streaming from there somehow.

I know.. it's hard to but it's an idea.

regards.
