NetGear Genie iOS app

I am attempting to use the NetGear Genie iOS app to see pictures and play videos and music from my ReadyNAS 104 (FW 6.2.2).

There is no rhyme or reason to why folders, pictures, videos or songs appear in the app.

At first, I thought it was because not all the songs had album tags. I added all the tags and nothing. However, tags do not explain anything about videos. I only see a very small amount of folders and videos.

Does anyone have any thoughts or solutions on this problem?

  • Try using an app called "Plex" it works brilliantly and shows your album art if you have it "burned" into your files? use a program called "Tagscan" to add the album art to your files, because if your using say iTunes that doesn't add the album art to the mp3 or aac files as standard, you have to add them in yourself manually.

    I use tagscan myself, its free and has several nice features. iTunes isn't very efficient if you have a lot of files to tag.
