We used to follow symlinks, but stopped doing so when we ran into problems when people used them to create cycles (e.g. "ln -s .. foo") that caused the scanner to go into a loop. Ignoring all symlinks avoided this problem but is a problem for your use case.
It will index your media if you use a bind mount instead (which doesn't have the looping problems), but it might be a bit difficult to get that to survive reboots on the phone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1475417 Title: Cannot play symlinks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bug/1475417/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
