New songs in FireFly

I seem to have a file-access problem when adding new songs to Firefly. If I download or create MP3's on my Windows-laptop Firefly finds them no problem. If I download songs using SABNZBD on Bubba and i copy them to /storage/music Firefly does not add these to its database. I tried changing file access from windows, but this doesn't seem to help. I guess this should be done using chmod from SSH? Can anyone tell me what CHMOD parameters should make my music accessible?

Have you tried visiting http://bubba:3689/index.html and manually starting a scan from there?

The problem is that that finds only files which have been transferred from my windows-pc

Hi,

You mentioned "/storage/music", I assume you meant "/home/storage/music" (or have you changed your configuration)?

Compare the mode bits and ownership of two files (one that is accessible and one that isn't). Easiest way to test this is run

Code: Select all

ls -l <FILENAME>
on the two files. If they have similar modes and ownership but are stored in different folders, then examine the mode and ownership of the folders.
