[SOLVED]Where's all my stuff?

Post by jbiggs »

Actually, I have two issues:

1. When I loaded My Media and did the initial scan of my ‘Music’ folder, it didn’t bring over my Playlists properly. A lot of them are incomplete and some of them are totally empty. For example, the track ‘The Ballad of Curtis Loew’ is in .mp3 format and is on my playlist called ‘DL II’. That particular playlist is completely empty but that track is on My Media. I tried doing the ‘Trigger Rescan’ thing but no dice.
2. I have a lot of music in Windows Media Audio (.wma) format that didn’t come over on the initial scan. Will doing the FFmpeg install and enable thing transcode those files?

thx,

jb

1. Not sure but the way to debug this is to look at the Watch Folder logs - this will include a log of how the playlists have been processed.

Click on the 'logs' icon next to the Playlist:

2. Yes, WMA files are not indexed by default; you need to install ffmpeg as you surmise below,

Thanks
