Hi, I'm a bit of a noob so bear with me lol I started messing with XBMC about a month ago & love it. There is a bit of a learning curve, but I think I have a pretty good grasp of it.
Everything works fine except for the music library (using any skin). My current setup has everything stored on my main HTPC (call it #1), and another PC in another room connected to the router via ethernet (call it #2). When I try to play music from #2, I can see & play my music from the "files" menu, but nothing in library mode UNLESS I click "search" and actually SEARCH for something. I can type "a" into the search box & there's all my music. After that, I can navigate the music library with no problems until I restart XBMC, then I have to do it again. All the music is properly tagged (except for some that I don't want listed anyway) and has been scanned multiple times. I've tried to export the library to the XBMC folder & import it back. No help there. I've tried the library auto-updater & again, no help. Is this how it's supposed to work? From what I can tell, the music library should be like the movie & tv libraries. While this isn't a deal-breaker, I would like the music library to be usable, instead of having to go to "files". I can't post any logs at the moment, but will be able to in a few hours, if it'll help. Thanks in advance!
