Hi, the full PC based Squeezebox Server requests one to specify a folder to look for music. Therefore, I'm wonderiung whether there's a chance to direct the built-in server of the SB Touch to a certain folder of the USB HDD instead of scanning the whole file system ? The UI doesn't allow for such a setting, right ? But how about the server code itself. It's probably related to the full server code base and the root path might be kind of flexible. I mean, a single conf option and not hard-coded multiple times. Did anyone look into such kind of tweaks ?
There are several use cases, where it would be very advantageous to limit the scan range on the USB HDD: - reduce the RAM requirement of the built in server in case of large collections. (Just a base part is added into the database, the rest goes via direct folder access) - prevent files with bogus tags being injected into the database. (I've got hundreds of demo/promo downloads collected over many years, which exhibit no or non-sense tags. Until I find some time to fix the tags .... ). - ....
