[Feature request] Multiple Folders per Library

[Froghut]

Add the possibility to add multiple folders to one Library.
For example I want some TV series encoded in x265 and some in x264, right now I would need to have a separate library for each tv show since they are all located in the same root folder. I can of course duplicate libraries and change the path, but that would still lead to a massive amount of libraries.
If we could add multiple folders I would instead end up with 2 libraries, one for h264 and one for h265.

Not possible to include this atm as too much stuff would need to be updated but if you really needed this you could do it in a plugin, processing items from each folder as necessary. So you'd just have one library, scan all your files and then put the transcode logic in the plugin.

const h264Folders = [
  '/media/1/',
  '/media/2/',
  '/media/3/',
]

const fileIsInH264Folder = (path) => {
  for (let i = 0; i < h264Folders.length; i += 1) {
    if (path.includes(h264Folders[i])) {
      return true
    }

  }
  return false;
}

if (fileIsInH264Folder(file._id)) {
  // transcode to h265

} else {
  // transcode to h264

}
