Media scan on synology doesnt work

Unread post by Oxize »

Hi there,

I started moving from Subsonic to Madsonic since today. I installed Madsonic on my Synology DS214+ NAS. I can reach madsonic through my NAS perfectly, but i have troubles with getting my mp3 into madsonic.

Ive entered a good Media folder which contains mp3's, but Madsonic doesnt retrieve the mp3's. My music folder on my nas is at /volume1/music

What can be the problem?

Tried many things tonight, but got it working already.

It seems when i have an direcotry /volume1/music, and within that folder are only artist folders. Somehow madsonic doesnt recognize that. When i put 1 mp3 in it, then it sees all my directory structures.

Bug?

Hi there,

Madsonic is at the moment strong folder orientated on the <artist>/<album>/<song> struturce

you can reforce the mediatype on rescaning with file tags, see how: http://forum.madsonic.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=19

in your case your full path should be:

Code: Select all


/volume1/music/artist/album/song.mp3

/volume1/music/compilation/sampler 123/song.mp3

/volume1/music/movies/blockbuster 123/video.mp4
