My files (on local USB Disk) are not scanned

Hi,
I have an external USB hard drive that contains video and music, directly connected to an USB port of my PC.
I added these folders on the Serviio console, but they are not scanned.
What can I do to diagnose the problem?
(The local folders on inside SATA hard disk are scanned correctly)
Thank you for your help.

I have the same problem. Maybe I'm dense, I looked at the FAQs and didn't see anything that seemed to answer the question. The closest thing seems to be "My files (on remote drive) are not scanned", but other than "Make sure the user that runs Serviio server/service has got access to the shared folders" nothing there applies to a local USB drive.

What am I missing?

Yes, that is it.

This may be related... serviio-1.2.1

## ls -l /var/ftp/pub
Movies -> sdc1/Movies
Music -> sdb1/Music
Pictures -> sdc1/Pictures

These are symbolic links to sdc1 and sdb1 in /var/ftp/pub directory. These directories are mount points for some HDs (non-USB but that doesn't matter). Permissions on all folders and mount points are 0755.

Using serviioweb-1.4beta (most current release) I cannot see these symlinks under /var/ftp/pub, nor can I see sub-folders under /var/ftp/pub/sdb1. Almost like serviio (or serviioweb) is deliberately not looking at symlinks or items outside the filesystem of the serviio process.

check the log to see if the folders are scanned and if there is an access rights issue

I do see some, but they're in the sub-directories that I've purposfully blocked.

I'm running Serviio Liunx - the only way to add a library path is with serviio-web UI which may be the source of my problems. If there another way to add a library path (eg. /var/ftp/pub/Music)?

the ui should work afaik. You should see it being scanned in the log.

I'll ask the UI dev team. Seems to have issues crossing partition bounderies.

eg.
/var/ftp/pub is on Device A
/var/ftp/pub/Music is on Device B
/var/ftp/pub/Movies is on Device C
