[SOLVED] USB Drives not showing - 6.5.2

[TheOldPresbyope]

Sorted!  In System Config, I changed USB auto-mounter to Devmon.

This suggests you are using an ARMv6 model such as the RPi0W or a RPi1B....

It always helps to be specific about hardware when posting a question.

The Library Folder view is not like a file browser on a typical desktop OS. It is a schematic view of what MPD knows after scanning filesystems and updating its database. Since the MPD database contains information only about individual tracks and playlists, only a partial directory (aka folder) structure can be inferred from it.

If the Stereo Test track has been erased from the SD card and it contains no other music tracks, then there will be no SDCARD entry in the Library Folder view after update. If there is no USB drive containing music tracks connected, the USB entry will not appear.

If, on the other hand, there are music tracks on a device and MPD has successfully scanned them (you can look at the contents of /var/log/mpd/log to verify this) then an appropriate folder should show up. If this isn't true, then the install may be broken.

Menu, Configure, Library
Clear library tag cache

Also a Kent suggested have a look at the MPD log to verify that your tracks were successfully added to MPD database.

Strangely there are only 4 albums on the thumb drive.

[Tim Curtis]

- Turn off debug logging, its not needed.
- Menu, Configure, Library
- CLEAR Library tag cache

If no albums show up in Library Folder, Tag, Album views then examine the MPD log for permission errors or any other errors.

Code:

cat /var/log/mpd/log

[misterdog]

- CLEAR Library tag cache, I did that, Just rolled back to 641 albums now showing.
I have output set to generic i2S is this the best for the Allo USBridge Sig.
641 is showing 'software up to date'.

[misterdog]

SOLVED.

To see your thumb drives/SD card, when on the radio station page simply click on blank space.
The bar/lozenge at the top of the page no longer exists. 

 We ditched the lozenge in favor of the big tap targets which I think you will find make it easier to use but we prolly should have made a first use screen or some visual cues that could be turned off after learning curve.

There's a couple proposals for doing something like this so maybe we'll one of them in upcoming 6.6.0 :-)

Also software volume control is no longer set to maximum/disabled on generic i2S.

All sounding great again.
