Aye would make sense but the Cache and prefs directories (along with
contents) are indeed successfully created.

I thought it may be some locking issue due to it being samba but I
assume it is known to work since the network drive location as an option
is specifically in PCP.

The underlying filesystem on the NAS is BTRFS.

Don't worry too much if you're not sure, although I'd prefer it on the
NAS where I can quickly recover, given what mherger has said I'm happy
to failover to caching/prefs on the sdcard.


Oh as an aside can I just say PCP is such an excellent bit of work, the
whole thing is really well put together. :)

Also mherger, said this before but thanks for LMS and all the work you
continue to do gratis.  LMS has been my go to for such a long time, and
as far as I can see it's still one of the best bits of software of its
type out there. :)
