After much archaeology on the forum archives, I have manged to get MusicIP working with SS/SB. (Thanks for detailed explanations by Siduhe and others in several threads). I'm finding MIP's playlists fascinating!
But I'd be grateful for some advice about adding new music. I've set SS to allow MusicIP to manage the music files (by having server basic settings with 'Use MusicMagic' checked and music folder location blank). So when I come to add new music, I assume I put the files into the appropriate directories on the drive, and first ask MusicIP to rescan its library. What next? Do I need to make SS do a rescan? Or will it just update itself from MusicIP automatically? (In the server MusicMagic settings, there's a MusicMagic Reload interval (currently set to 60 sec) that says SlimServer will 'automatically reload your MusicMagic Database again'.) (Sorry if this seems a stupid question, but I'm struggling to understand the relationship between the SS library/cache, the MusicIP library and the file structure and tags of the actual FLAC files on the drive, and how they are all now working together.) -- Diana -- Diana ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Diana's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7463 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31265 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
