But that's just the thing: with the default configuration of Daphile you see just one global music folder in LMS: /srv/mediaserver/music/, regardless of how many storage discs you've added. When adding a storage disc to the installation you can choose its name and whether it's used as music, backup or other. It then gets mounted underneath the global music folder, adding quite some path info, in this case /USB Drives/UP_Music/, before getting to the /ARTIST/ALBUM/ part of the path. So if I understood the mechanics correctly, all Bliss removes is /srv/mediaserver/music/, as that's what's configured in LMS (out of the box!), expecting to see /ARTIST/ALBUM/TRACK there, while in reality the path is /srv/mediaserver/music/*USB Drives/UP_Music/*ARTIST/ALBUM/TRACK. 39413 39414 39415
The reasoning behind this approach in Daphile is IMO "ease of management": strictly speaking, using it you don't go to the native interface of LMS, instead using its own flavour of it, not even presented on port 9000, but simply over http. All management is done here, and the default LMS "Basic Settings" page isn't published. The official LMS pages however are still being published on port 9000, which is how I was able to change the media folder to /srv/mediaserver/music/USB Drives/UP_Music for the Bliss folder substitution mechanism to work +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Screenshot_187.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=39415| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ Main System: Marantz SR-5015 + Adam Audio T8V + Teufel Ultima 20 Mk 3 + BK Monolith+ FF + Lenovo T560 + Kodi + Pioneer PDP-LX5090H + UP-Board running Daphile Kitchen: Touch + Ikea ENEBY 30 Home-Office: SqueezeLite-X + Topping DX3 Pro + NAD 312 + TMA Premium 905 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bakker_be's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30369 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116068 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
