only scan specified folders
I just installed UMS on a headless raspi 3 and got it all working, but it seems UMS scans all directories in the entire FS for media files. I did specify a specific folder to search for audio files in UMS.conf: . So how do I prevent or stop UMS from scanning and listing the entire contents of the FS?
Once done, what is the cli command to have UMS re-scan and re-build DB? Just delete the DB I guess and restart UMS?
Code: Select all
folders = /media/usbExtHd/music

Re: only scan specified folders
The above should do it, but you should stop UMS before editing the config file (or it might be overwritten). There's no way to communicate with the process once it's running, so you need to stop UMS, delete the database and restart like you suggest. You can reset the database from the GUI, but that doesn't help you.
