I am struggling here with the Files section. After adding my NAS as a storage, it scanned all the files, but as I donāt have the best structures and naming within my albums, I usually search my music via folder structure.
The thing is, though, when I try to access the subfolders of my NAS, they seem to not contain any files whatsoever.
Only way to reach the data would be through the Artists section, which leaves me in a crapload of different Artists I donāt even know I had.
I think the newer versions of mopidy-local-sqlite (the extension pimusicbox uses for local files) should support browsing. But Iām not sure if the musicbox version has a new enough mopidy-local-sqlite
The folder structure should be available under āBrowseā. So the files are visible when browsing for an artist and the same files are not visible in the folder structure? MusicBox uses the newest version of mopidy-local-sqlite
When youāre browsing āLocal media -> Foldersā and you see only directories, but no files, this usually means that your media files havenāt been scanned. When browsing āFoldersā, Mopidy-Local-SQLite will actually ābrowseā the file system hierarchy starting with local/media_dir, but only display files/tracks it finds in the database. Yes, this is somewhat inconsistent and confusing, and thereās already an issue for that: https://github.com/tkem/mopidy-local-sqlite/issues/42
FYI: This has been changed in the latest version of Mopidy-Local-SQLite, so you now can browse all files via āFoldersā, even if they havenāt been scanned yet.
