Hi
Thanks to the superhuman efforts of forum member cjed; I managed to set up my Logitec Squeezebox Touch and ReadyNAS.
I have been using it for several months with only minor hiccups (which I may well ask about later on) but now need some assistance with something that I am sure is very simple; but seems to be beyond me
I use dBpoweramp to rip my CDs which are all arranged alphabetically.
What I would like to do (without hopefully re-ripping everything) is to arrange the contents into folders i.e.
1) Rock & Pop
2) Jazz
3) Classical
4) Opera
5) Mrs Drongos Music
6) Audio Books
7) Audio Plays
Im sure that this must be possible? But how? Obviously; I should have done this to begin with; but there we are....
I thought it would simply be a matter of creating a folder within the CD RIPS folder that the CDs ripped on dBpoweramp go to.
I created the folder and put one of my wifes CDs into it; its visible on Windows Explorer; but not when I search the files on the squeezebox; even after rescanning.
The path to my NAS as set on dBpoweramp:
My music folders as seen in Windows Explorer:
The subfolder I created for my wife (Marilyn) which contains the All Angels CD. As you can see; it's there on Windows Explorer but not visible via the Squeezebox:
What have I done wrong and what do I need to do to create folders that I can access via the SBT?
As you can probably tell, with regards to everything computer/IT related, I am a complete and utter moron.
Please keep your explanations nice and simple.
Many Thanks
Drongo
