[SlimDevices: Touch] Rescan on headless server??

2010-04-24 Thread kgturner

maybe i'm missing it, but how do i do a rescan from the touch using the
remote. i have my music on a headless server in another room and can't
seem to locate the rescan options (look for new and changed music /
clear library and rescan everything) in the touch menus. where are they
at?

But the ip3k players has this feature.

It was once rised as an enhancement request in bugzilla for the duet
(controller), but turned down to wontfix for no comprehensible reason.

But now when Touch is going to replace SB3 let's add this to the list
of SB3 features that was not migrated.

But on the other hand with SQlite scanning (or any newer scanner) you
cant do that without the music stopping at the end of the scan anyway.

But this will be moot when the auto discovery function is working
properly.
Then you can just add the files and wait.
I think it will come in 7.6

i run the power server control plugin on my touch. this allows me to
turn on and off the server with the remote. the server is in a
completely different room. what your telling me is i have to connect a
monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the headless server, get up, go to
where the server is, and manually rescan the library or i have to turn
my primary computer and navigate over the network to rescan the library
because a feature that has been present for years has been removed. that
is a glaring and ignorant omission in my opinion.

I start my scans when I add the files, thenI'm sitting in front of a
computer anyway.

Use the web interface no need to lug out any keyboard and stuff ?
Do you never use the web-UI for setting up playlist and such things ?

i rarely use the web ui. when i owned the sb3, i did most of my
controlling through the remote. i just set up the sb3 menus in the web
ui and rarely accessed it beyond that.
