Have you ever had SqueezeCenter finding your music?

What directory have you told SqueezeCenter to search? Does the user
"squeezecenter" have permission to view your music?

Here's what I've just tried (as root):
====
chsh -s /bin/bash squeezecenter     # Set sc's shell to bash to allow
login
su - squeezecenter                  # change to sc user
ls -al /home/public/music/06_the_sunshine_underground.flac #list file
info
###Output omitted, but successful
metaflac --list /home/public/music/06_the_sunshine_underground.flac
###Output omitted, but successful
exit                                # exit sc user shell
chsh -s /sbin/nologin squeezecenter # set shell back as it was
====

If you're using e.g. Oggs or MP3s you'll have to change the "metaflac
--list" to ogginfo or mp3info or whatever.

Basically you're just checking that the user "squeezecenter" can view
stuff inside the path you've given to SqueezeCenter (check, and
double-check the paths).

cheers
