    Hello,
    I have a strange issue: I scan folders to share files, but for some Folders, each files is not created as a swarm: the full folder is viewed as a swarm.

    So, what are the rules to create a swarm with one folder or to force OneSwarm to do a swarm for each file of the folders ?

    I don't really know, but I think if a folder contains subfolders, then the subfolders become swarms and the main-folder doesn't :-)

    After some experiments, I've noticed that the full folder is viewed as a swarm when the file's names are like the folder's name.

    So, If you add a folder named "ABCDEF 15", containing files "ABCDEF 15 - 1 - abcedef.mp3" "ABCDEF 15 - 2 - zlrgjn.mp3", ... It may be considered globally as a swarm.

    Another option is to configure the sharing manually if the automatic detection don't work.

    Not for me remi_pan... but I suspect that it can create folders when files inside have quite the same name... NAMEx01.jpg NAMEx02.jpg NAMEx03.jpg..

    I have the reverse problem : How can I share a folder under the folder name without having 1S listing the content as separate swarms ? (ie share a DVD folder and not the VIDEO TS, neither all the files in the Video TS folder ?
