Hi,
maybe this has been asked before, but i was not really able to find any clear description of a similar issue, so here it goes. In several mediacenter solutions i've tried before, there was some kind of support for offline media (Meedio, MediaPortal through MovingPictures...).
Here's the thing: I store my medias using external, usually unplugged USB hard drives. I like to have ALL my files indexed, and when I try to play a file, if it is located on a disconnected drive, have my mediacenter request that I plug drive X.
Has this ever been discussed ? Is there some kind of support for it already ?
I have also identified this similar feature request:

it however only relates to DVD-disc indexing.
Thank you for your attention
