If you want just the file names without the full path incorporate the basename command like thisįind /share/Public/Music -type f -exec basename > /share/Public/filenames. share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/09 - Below The Canal.flac share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/08 - Rialto.flac share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/07 - Rub Down.flac share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/06 - Day One.flac share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/05 - Skipscada.flac m3u format, which means you can export your iTunes playlists and have them work in Asset UPnP. share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/04 - Knife Slits Water.flac share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/03 - Gum.flac share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/02 - Crystal.flac Output looks like this /share/Public/Music/A Certain Ratio/Sextet/01 - Lucinda.flac That command directs the output to a file called myfiles,txt in /share/Public On my QNAP NAS /share/Public/Music is where my music files are located so change that to whatever path yours are in. If you’re on a Mac or Linux based NAS then the find command is what you needįind /share/Public/Music -type f -print > /share/Public/myfiles.txt The linux version can create m3u playlists (with the correct file paths) but I don’t know whether this would work on the QNAP NAS. It’s a bit of a pain to get it right at first but once you’ve cracked the correct path structure that Asset understands, it works like a dream.Īnother solution may be to use VLC media player which I understand can be installed on QNAP. I create the playlist then open the file in Notepad and do Find/Replace on the parts of the file paths needing changing, before copying the file to Asset which I run on a Linux server. Secondly, Playlist Creator runs on Windows and you may have to text edit the file paths in the playlist files created as the program creates Windows compatible file paths to the music files - fine of you running the Asset server on Windows. Firstly, you do not get dynamic additions to your playlists - all changes are through editing the playlist m3u files in Playlist Creator. There are two downsides with this though. As stated, you will need to create a folder on the NAS for your playlists and specify its path in the Asset config. I just want it to scan for changes at start up or when I refresh manually.I’m with GavinB that Playlist Creator is the way to go with Asset server. But changing files isn't something I want a media server to mess with. Actually JRiver doesn't work like this, images for recognized albums are pulled from the internet to display slideshows. I don't want to fix something for JRiver then put it on my phone and find out the file a lot larger than was previously. Tagging I've done were for a Digital Audio Player or my smartphone which aren't necessarily the same resolution. Well, I don't want JRiver using that file necessarily. But I'd rather have to redo the work within JRiver than deal with trying to fix things that external to the system. This is something of pain to set up because all the tagging I did previously has to be redone. JRiver doesn't use tags of the files, it creates it's own tagging. The changes are updated to JRiver's internal tables. Why would it change anything on the NAS? I use JRiver and all it does is scan folders for changes.
