About the first: ReadyDLNA organizes your data in two ways for you. One is the folder structure in which you store your files. The other one is in virtual folders sorted by media type. It sorts all video's together, all music together and all photo's. You can then search through those media types by type-specific properties like genre, artist, etc.
The second can be two things.
- ReadyDLNA should keep track of the changes in the folders. However, it might take a (short) while. In some cases it does not automatically update, then you can manually update the database via Dashboard. (at least, that's how it works on my Ultra, I'm assuming it works approximately the same on the Duo v2)
- The PS3 does not reload the folder content each time a folder is accessed. So if the PS3 doesn't ask for an update, you can only find out if a file is gone by opening it. You can try to make the PS3 reload the folder by browsing to a different media server and then back or by manually making it search for media servers.
