Jim, Don't weant to give up yet! I have taken on board your suggestion of a Raspberry unit if all else fails. Also tried your USB suggestion with some files. Although the folder on USB can be seen and selected by LMS a scan does not make them availabe to see or play? When it comes to allocating user access to the sub folders within the MUSIC folder on the USB , my NAS does not allow sub folder permissions on external drives ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tonymac's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70890 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117009 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
