Although I'm using a vortexbox server, I would like to be able to use my music collection standalone, e.g. for when I'm on holiday (Touch + hdd + headphone).
I took my backup drive from the vortexbox server (only music files). There are almost 19000 tracks on it. The drive is a bus powered Iomega 500 GB hdd. I attached the drive to my Touch and the Touch started scanning. Files were discovered, databases build, and somewhere near the end of the artwork scanning I did get a simple message that the scanning could not complete because there was a problem. I can't see any log files. So I'm stuck. (I repeated the whole thing after removing the .Squeezebox folder: same result.) The possibilities I see: 1. The drive is not supported. But if so, why all goes well till so late in the scanning process? 2. Problems with artwork. But exactly the same collection works perfectly well on my vortexbox machine. The fact that there is no log makes it very difficult to find the problem. Any pointers on what to do would help. As it is, I intend to make a selection of my music for standalone use; that would most probably work. But it would still be unclear why it won't work with a music collection that works perfectly well on a) my vortexbox machine and b) when attached to my Windows laptop.
