Forgive me for being an idiot, but how do I configure a dynamic 
collection? Is this done automatically for removable media? If so how do 
I force my NFS share to be a dynamic collection? Sometimes it's 
connected, as is my iRiver. I'd like them both to be dynamic collections 
ideally so they can be disconnected.

I just tried to add a my NFS share but upon restarting Amarok after 
unmounting all the files were deleted from the db (or so it seems).

Using 1.4.1


PS having read the discussion article linked from this thread I see that 
this would address network shares....
