Scan Folders doesn't seem to do anything other than announcing that a scan is in progress. When I click on the server, a browser is opened and I see 10.0.0.105:5001/console/index.html. On Windows 10 systems I see the 'Hendrik's UMS' server listed as a media device in Network in the File Explorer. The behavior that I seeing on Windows is the following: I included the log You are being of help, thank you! I do not understand why I don't seem to be able to find the server when browsing with VLC and why I can't find any of the media files when I browse using Windows Media Player.Īny help would be greatly appreciated. I also can see the UMS if I browse with the Windows Media Player, but I can't find any of the files or folders in the server. I am able to see UMS in the File Explorer listed as a media device. On the Windows 7 VLC however, the UMS does not come up as a Media device when I browse through the application. File playback appears to be fine on the Pixel. The player on Android seems to be able to find the UMS without a problem and navigate through the file folder structure. I am using VLC Media Player as the test player on the devices. I have been testing playback on Android (Google Pixel Android 7.1.1) and on a Windows 7 Home Edition which is my recording studio computer with the fancy audio interface and monitors. I am trying to playback files at the original quality without transcoding to a lossy format. I am trying to setup a library of FLAC files to play from various devices on my home network.
