MPD auto update
#8
I do have Telnet, it seems. There is much that I didn't and don't know  Blush

So yes, I can Telnet in and issue the update command and get the same response as you. But still the newly added music doesn't appear.

Just to clarify, these are the steps I take:

1) Transfer new flacs to my media folder on Pi (using rsync).

2) In my web browser (Safari), go to moode.local and verify that the new flacs are there in moOde's file browser tab

3) From my Mac Terminal, ssh pi@moode.local and 'mpc update', or Telnet as you descibed and 'update'

4) See some activity in moodeutl -t, so I know something has happened.

5) In Safari, refresh the moOde Player page and check the library tab. No sign of the new flacs.

6) In Safari, select 'Configure' from the top right-hand corner menu, click on 'Library' to get the Library Config page, click the MPD Database 'Update' button.

7) Exit configuration (arrow top left-hand corner) and return to the library browse tab and the new flacs have apeared.

One quick thing, just in case it has a bearing - all my music is stored on a USB stick that mounts automatically in /media.

What this is all telling me, most of all, is that next time I have one of those "wouldn't it be nice if..." thoughts, I should keep it to myself and avoid bothering anyone else.

Thanks again,

Roger
