Description
Describe the feature you'd like to request
I have added ".nomedia", ".noimage", ... to a bigger share. Unlikely all the subfolders are still scanned.
Describe the solution you'd like
The exclude tags should also exlude the subfolders. It is simply not practical to add ".nomedia" to all of the round about 200 subfolders
Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatively ther could be an extra tag ".nosubfolders" to exclude all subfolders from scan.
