In my experience the indexing has all kinds of odd little issues. I've had to strip the ID3 tags from some songs completely and then re-do them with iTunes to make them show up properly.
That said, use 6.5.1 - it's been stable in the sense of not having the problems people have been constantly complaining about in 6.5.0. To re-index, don't pick rescan and don't do a clear and scan. Delete the whole library database and let Slimserver build it all from scratch. It's the only way I found to be reliable. With the newest 6.5.1 releases (Nov 29 for instance) I have in fact done successful rescan and clean and scan operations, so I don't know if something was fixed or if it was just chance. I've also just started using the Fishbone skin and holy Moses, is it way better than the default skin. That's subjective I supose, but I just find it a lot more intuitive and better laid out. usability went up by at least a factor of 5. -- MelonMonkey Bruno *'Twisted Melon - Fine Mac OS Software' (http://twistedmelon.com) | 'mira - Personal Control for your Apple Remote' (http://twistedmelon.com)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MelonMonkey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8466 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30215 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
