No it wont. And your qnap can not do that it has to weak cpu . Do you have tags in your files ? as you are using folders instead of "artist" or "album" just wonder if you tagging was a mess . Did you scan first ? If you browse to a folder where there are unscanned files sbs does a small scan and put them in the dB. As you have a NAS I suggest not meddling with the file types settings . Try to run the server on a PC , maybe it is a cpu issue :-/ If sbs can handle the Touch on a PC but not on the NAS ? But further experimenting.... proves interesting, I have probably (not 100% sure yet) solved my issue :) I have had my server priority settings "high" in settings > advanced > performance , note this is linux "nice" levels -20 is highest priority 0 is normal -16 is high . I now have it on "normal" = 0 It's seems like very high settings on a small server , makes it prioritize sbs over anything else like networking ? or other necessary system tasks. On weak server avoid to use the web-UI at the same time. Hopefully you have scanned with the precache artwork setting to yes otherwise sbs has to scale images everytime you change album. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.
