Yes, it should be no problem. As you might have read in this thread I
will add some GUI options in a next version to make it easy for NAS
users to configure ACC to work with a NAS.
There are a couple of things you need to do:
- Install the mySQL ODBC driver on your Vista machine
- Change the ODBC connector string
Your database is on the linux server so the connection string on line
48 should look like:
Const ConnectString = "DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};Server=<NAS IP
NUMBER>;Port=9092;Database=slimserver;UID=slimserver;Password=;Option=3"
Replace <NAS IP NUMBER> with....your NAS ip number
- Map a drive from the windows machine you're running ACC from to the
NAS music share
- Edit line 530
ACC will take the path to the track stored in the DB to look for cover
files. When running ACC from a windows machine SS is also running from
this is no problem. The path stored on your linux NAS however looks
something like;
file:////n2100/itunes/Music/B/Bach/Great%20Organ%20Works%20-%20Carlo%20Curley/01%20-%20Passacaglia%20and%20Fugue%20in%20C%20Minor,%20B
MV%20582.flac (thx to MuckleEck for the example)
ACC can't use this path but needs a drive letter. So if you mapped
drive y: to the path \\n2100\itunes, then you should change line 530 to
look like:
sFilepath = Replace( rs("path"), "file:////n2100/itunes" ,"y:")
Hope this helps?
Frank
