I just upgraded to SqueezeCenter 7.0.1 running on my custom built NAS
box where all my music lives. The NAS box runs Debian and I use iTunes
to organize my music on my MacBook and keep ratings, smart playlists,
etc. I just moved the iTunes Library XML file to the NAS box and got
it (sort of) working in iTunes so that I can use it with
SqueezeCenter.
I imported the iTunes Library XML file into SqueezeCenter and told it
that the iTunes library directory is the same as the directory where
the music lives on the NAS box (it's actually not, I don't let iTunes
manage any of my music on disk). Now I can see my iTunes playlists in
SqueezeCenter but when I play them, nothing happens. When I press the
'add' button, nothing gets added, etc.
Within the iTunes XML file itself, the Location tags for the files look
like this:
Code:
--------------------
file://localhost/Volumes/media/music/adult%20contemporary,%20softer%20rock,%20etc/albums/Tracy%20Chapman%20-%20Tracy%20Chapman/Tracy%20Chapman%20-%20Tracy%20Chapman%20-%2001%20-%20Talkin'%20Bout%20A%20Revolution.mp3
--------------------
However, that's from the point of view of my MacBook, which mounts the
NAS box in /Volumes/media. From SqueezeCenter's point of view on the
NAS box, the music is all in /shares/media. I suspect that might be
the problem here and I'm kind of surprised that path translation isn't
working. Or maybe it's just not obvious to me what to do in this case.
