Hi everyone,

Heiner, Thanks again for your help; unfortunately, this issue is not yet solved.

To state the problem again, while my 1 TB WD Passport easily mounts (as /media/usb0 (Device /dev/sda1 with UUID 0BF3-110E), LMS cannot „see“ the music when it’s doing it’s scan.

It’s important to note that this same WD Passport USB drive was prior to this used as a NAS to store music for my system, and was working fine. I had to go to a new WiFi system that doesn’t have a USB plug in NAS capability. As far as the drive, I am trying to use it without any change as a directly plugged HDD into my RPi. I have also tried a second WD Passport directly plugged into my RPi.

I’ve checked the properties of both of these drives. They are both set up for sharing with no restrictions. Mounting goes easily:

Here are the specifics of the mount:
Path: UUID=0BF3-110E
Mountpoint: /media/usb0
Type: vfat
Options: defaults,nofail

The drives are both formatted as FAT32. They are both „shared“.

The media scan details shown in LMS are:
Discovering files/directories: /mnt/share/music (1 of 1) Complete 00:00:01

Building full text index (7 of 7) Complete 00:00:00

Database Optimize (2 of 2) Complete 00:00:11

The server has finished scanning your media library.
Total Time: 00:00:12 (Thursday, February 28, 2019 / 9:45 am)

Any ideas? I’m pretty stuck…

Thank you sir!

Dave
