The usual apologies for asking what I am sure to others appear to be
basic questions. 

I have been a very grateful user of LMS for a number of years but with
very much a "fit and forget attitude" unless things start to go wrong. 

Previously I had LMS running on my nas and my music files are also
stored there, so while I can't remember precisely how I directed the
server to the music is seemed to work. Very recently LMS on the Synology
has stopped working so I have had to rethink. I have got picoreplayer on
one of my Pi's (version 4) so I added LMS to that pi which previously
only ran the squeezeplayer. So far so good but I have been trying to
access my music still stored on the Synology and have failed miserably.
I have tried to complete the mount settings on the pCp page - giving a
name to the folder (I have tried randomly Diskstation, Music etc
assuming that it did not really matter so long as I recognised it. I
have put the ip address of the Synology in and using nfs I have put the
folder address as /volume1/music - the music is stored in sub-folders
under that. When I try to mount I get a disk mount error and it suggests
I try to reboot. I have done that several times without any success.
Some help would be very much appreciated.

A second problem has arisen. I have over the years accessed BBC Radio 3
through the iPlayer and also Spotify through Spotty add-ons. I realised
that the iPlayer has now been replaced by BBC Sounds and I successfully
added that plug in. However that has joined Spotify as a problem. When I
tried to add Spotify add on when pressing apply a message with a new
tick box appeared saying that there was a newer version. However if I
ignore that message and restart the plug in has not worked. The same
applies if I try to restart later and click the newer version. It
doesn't add on. 

Now I am getting the same message for BBC sounds - a newer version is
available but the result is  that neither now seems to work.

Sorry I all the above is a bit garbled but the net effect is that I
cannot get my music folders, cannot load Radio 3 from BBC sounds and
cannot get Spotify. All this from a system that worked pretty well for
years in not much more than 24 hours. Very frustrating.
