Hello there, PMFJI, I recently bought a ReadyNas NV and find it hangs whenever I do a rescan, if I Telnet into port 9090 and try to get the rescan status (rescan ?) same result. Also file transfer very slow , but it does play ok once it settles down. I'm using a Linux box to transfer the data which you would think would suit it, what's that tip on adding music by browsing to the music folder ? - this could save me a lot of time if just adding one album regards -- pkfox When the going gets weird - the weird turn pro.
