ReadyDLNA is not updating with new iTunes music
I have the ReadyNAS 104 which on the whole works well. I have an issue though where it won't update the ReadyDLNA database with any new music that I add to iTunes. This has been an ongoing issue ...
Thanks for the welcome :)
I have kept up to date with all the firmware updates, including the 6.6.1 version, but still fails to update the music library :(
Would any of the logs show why it's failing to update?
Hello BrainzUK,
Are you adding the music files using mobile phone or iPad or Mac computer? Please see if you get the same problem when you are using a computer that is wired to the network where the NAS is.
Regards,
I am adding the music via iTunes on my PC.
I am sure that the ReadyDLNA system should be auto scanning for new music every so often and adding anything it finds, which it doesn't.
Hello BrainzUK,
Did you remove then reinstall it after the update? Can you try that please and see if you get the same?
Do you not see the music files that has been added when getting to the share that has the iTunes enabled?
Regards,
I'm not sure how to completely "remove" the DLNA option, but I definitely have tried disabling it, rebooting, then re-enabling and it makes no difference.
The only way to get the new music added is to force the NAS to rescan.
The music is there in the newly added folders, but just doesn't show up when browsing via DLNA folders.
