Tony said that the user / group and permissions on a non working folder are identical to a working folder when looked at with WinSCP. If that is really correct from top level down then LMS should be able to see them but apparently it cant. Although Tony doesnt say so explicitly the QNAP must be fairly old - top level being called Qmultimedia not Multimedia as it is on latest models - but in order to run LMS must be using digimasters package and must be fairly powerful. One thing that has changed in recent firmware is a nag that tells you when you are using the default admin account and suggests you change it. Tony - did you follow that advice? I dont use LMS directly on my QNAP and havent done for years largely for this sort of reason. I cant run digimasters package as my QNAP isnt powerful enough but it is perfectly good as a file store. Hence I run LMS on another machine and point it at the files on the NAS. I also have a Pi4 running pCP as a dev server pointed at the QNAP so I would totally endorse the suggestion that Jim makes in this regard. However as you say it was working ok so something has changed and it probably is really simple. It may be a good idea to seek advice in digimasters QNAP thread. My money is still on a subtle change on the QNAP in relation to user or group rights and how the files have been written from Windows to the QNAP. Nevertheless It is possible that the files themselves have been created differently and arent valid in Linux terms but are to Windows. To upload a couple put them in a Zip file. Just to recap. 1. If you run a clear and rescan you get exactly the same results? 2. If you place a non working file into a working folder can LMS see and play the file? 3. What is your folder path structure - Qmultimedia/Music/Artist/Album - or are there sub folders between Music and Artist?
