I wld rescan the library -- cldn't take that long ! And let LMS do
rescans overnight, if you update content regularly ...
Do it overnight if you have a HUGE many-TB library .. mine is under 2T,
and just moved to a newer LMS server. Scan took under 1 hour...the
library itself is on a NAS..
Nice thread ... using TrueNas, but just for the music library. The LMS
running on a VM. TrueNas is such a great platform.

What are the symptoms of the dying disks ? How old is the netgear ? --
is it no longer supported ?
You could go the RPi route, as suggested, with your library of music
attached via external USB disk, or network share.
You cld also build a new NAS using a platform like 'Freenas'
Brilliant ! I was missing the "?" after the slash --
http://lms:9000/?player=04:20:17:21:c7 gets me the correct player --

Hello - I have 2 players currently - upstairs (squeezebox) and
downstairs (picore player)
I would like the upstairs unit to show up (squeezebox) as the default
player when I go to the web interface...it always defaults to
"picoreplayer", so it seems to be alphabetical... I have tried renaming
Have you added COLDBREW to the local hosts file ?? unless it is
registered in your local dns, the computer will not know what to do with
COLDBREW ... what happends if you type ping COLDBREW from the command
prompt ?
127.0.0.1 is present by default in your local hosts file, so that will
always

Thank you for explaining the bahavior of favorites file -- before
editing, I stopped the LMS service on the server -- (I assume this is
the only service that needs to be stopped )
I was able to edit the opml file, and new headings etc showed up ... the
motivation for this is to find a better
I see the favorites.opml and favorites.opml.backup files, but can only
edit the .backup file ... the actual favorites file cannot be edited
(nano editor reports that it is exclusively accessed by root) ..
I am unclear what triggers changes to the .backup file... I went to the
Web UI, and edited
Thank you for the detailed reply -
I think I will stick with 16.04 for now ... absolutely no plms with this
, so stick with a winner !

Currently hosting LMS on Ubuntu server 16.04. Is there any 'pressing'
reason to dist-upgrade to 18.04 ?

I am considering moving my LMS library off the older vortexbox hw onto a
newer FreeNas platform. I would like to use NFS on the FreeNas box for
the library.
I have the NFS share setup on the FreeNas box, copied some music folders
over, and can access from a Linux client..
Do I simply need to
Thanks for clearing this up ...

Hello - I am simply "buffaloed" as to how to get LMS to playback a VLC
music stream, which is being hosted locally.
I am sending the stream out from one computer on the home network. I can
play the stream on another computer on the home network with VLC as
client - no problems there, so URL etc
Just like everyone else - Thanks !

Hello -
Here is what I do (Duet controller)
Clear current playlist
My Music -> Genre -> Oldies
press +
Select Play
It will show artwork from previous playlist (in this case, Renaissance
music)
The playlist is not a saved playlist ...
when I save the playlist (I called it test) then I open
