I am a new user and so far so good and I am now working through a few issues.
Issue 1 a folder with MPEG level 1 files plays on WMP but serviio ignores...Probably not supported. Just reporting this its not a big issue
Issue 2 and this is a bigger issue. Not all files appear in all folders. MY Samsung TV returns an error 'request cannot be completed you will be returned to the main screen''
The strange thing is its limited to a small subset of folders. Sometimes it goes away if you try a day later. Sometimes it seems to be caused by
the Samsung calling for the track and somehow corrupting serviio so whenever you enter that folder again you get the same message....even after I tried the following fixes:
a) a stop restart
b) a 'force refresh'
c) rename the folder (eg from ABBA to ABBA XXX) on the assumption that it will force a rebuild of the index to that folder and sub folder AND then rename it back to the original (eg ABBA) which would force a rebuild a second time. In this case the log shows that all the files were removed and then added again - twice which is what I expected but the folder entry point still fails as if somehow serviio has decided that folder name is crupted?
BUT if you go via ártist' and not folder the music and albums all play fine. My music is all organised in a folder hierarchy my music>artist>album>sub album. I don't normally enter via artist because not all tagging is accurate and in any case you then pick up (or should pick up) all tracks on complilation albums and I don't want to do that.
ISSUE 3 only a tiny minority of playlists appear and if you go via folder to the folder holding all the playlists - non appear Basically all my playlists are built using WMP so are in wpl format. I have reviewed the log but it does not tell me much.
The error log did point to a few ( 10 ) files with no title or no audio which I am now fixing but non of these seems related in any way to the folder problems
any suggestions gratefully recieved
