Information Files - Experience and Suggestion

[Oliviander]

Hi Simon,
i am on my way to integrate my booklet.pdfs
in Minimserver.
Not many by now, but as there may be more
downloads with booklets available, I hope I can
shrink my CD Storage in the future.

As my favoured ControlPoint Kinsky is no longer maintained
and is not able to creat a link (At least you can copy paste
the URL of the booklet in the Browser),
I decided to give BubbleDS a try.

As most of the time I Control my Music from PC
I created a virtual Android Machine (Android-x86 LineageOS)
only for this purpose. And as Bubbleguum stated that he
won't do anything about a GOOGLE free Version,
I reluctantly created a Google account solely for this purpose.

I then had a long search for a good document viewer that was
able to open that link directly as most viewers can't do that
and you normally have to download the file with the browser first
(very unconvenient).

So here it is
in the F-Droid repository there is the following app

document viewer (current version 2.8.2)
https://f-droid.org/de/packages/org.suff...re.viewer/

which works really great for that purpose !
And as it took me a real long time to find this as here are not many
strucured informations about viewer apps in the internet,
I decided to share this information here.

But then what would be a thread without a small suggestion:

I am stuck between your options to name the booklet file.

As I understand I have the option to either
name the booklet

folder.pdf (same as folder) or booklet.pdf

but both have real drawbacks in my view:

1. Name all booklets "booklet.pdf"
Would result in having hundreds of booklet.pdf files
in my library. If I accidently put that file in the wrong place
it will be lost forever.

2. Name all booklets "folder.pdf"
Could result in loosing the booklet to the library
when I have to rename the Folder
where it is in.

So I have the following suggestion.
Let us use any filename that just begins with "booklet"
so that "booklet-this-is-an-old-directoryname.pdf"
would be accepted.
So I could name all booklets individually without
them beeing omitted when I rename the directory they are in.

I imagine that this won't be real hard to implement.

ThX for considering

PS: Simon this is the proof that I am not only doing crash tests
with your software
