The Music folder needs to be searchable by squeezecenter - this means
setting the folder permissions as executable. Check whether this is
the case by browsing to your music folder and clicking properties >
permissions
or in a terminal;
Code:
--------------------
ls -l /media/NTFS250/FLACMusic
--------------------
If the folders and files are not executable/searchable, permissions
need to be changed.
In a terminal type:
Code:
--------------------
sudo chmod -R a+x /media/NTFS250
--------------------
