Once I turned on -d 9 I could easily see that the streamer was trying to open a file from the old path /mnt/share1/Music instead of /mnt/share1/mt-daapd-media. From this I assumed that even though it appears to be scaning up front it couldn’t tell that files had moved.

I stopped it, deleted the cache and restarted it and while it took a while to scan (I have > 32000 songs) it began working fine.

One question, does mt-daapd not anounce itself until it thinks it has scanned the database once at start? I noticed during this process that the first time I opened itunes it didn’t see mt-daapd. I shut itunes down and restarted it after the scan had completed it it worked fine. This is not a problem, just wondering.

During this I also noticed some other error. I’ve included it here (from a level 5 debug). Below are the errors that occur after the web server starts.

Thanks for the help. Steve
p.s. I should have said this is version 0.2.4

The “not noticing file move” is a bug in 0.2.4. Fixed in nightlies. And yes, it doesn’t advertise until it finishes the initial scan. That’s sort-of a feature, although with the newer versions, you can skip the initial scan, and get it to start up faster.

As far as the meta codes go, that’s because it’s really advertising as a iTunes 5 server or something, and doesn’t understand the new iTunes metadata. Really just a warning to me to fix stuff. 🙂
