Going to lay down some enhancement ideas which may be out of scope/not possible.
Enhancements to improve newbies ease of use:
1. Rename STRMs to a Kodi friendly format:
Example 1 - if the movie file is named Ghost in the Shell 2017 BluRay CEE 1080p AVC Atmos TrueHD 7 1
gdrive creates a STRM named Ghost in the Shell (2017).strm inside a folder dedicated to movie STRMs.
Example 2 - a TV episode file named Fear Factor S05E18 WEB x264
gdrive creates a directory named Fear Factor (if non-existent) inside a folder dedicated to TV STRMs. gdrive also creates a sub-directory named Season 05 (if non-existent). Within the Season 05 folder a STRM is created named S05E18.strm
2. Gdrive monitors a movie folder and TV folder within Google Drive, scouting for changes. When a new movie/TV show is uploaded, gdrive automatically creates a STRM file and also updates the local Kodi library. Perhaps gdrive even fetches subtitles for that particular video too.
3. Sync STRMs to cloud - Option to encrypt them for those who have gone down the encryption route.
General enhancements:
1. Now that it's possible to locally resume and mark videos as watched using STRMs, this may be a possibility too - Display movie/TV episode information and its poster art within the Kodi player when playing a STRM file.
2. Ability to delete videos within the browser and when deleted, gdrive automatically deletes the videos associated STRM file and cleans/updates the local library.
