Hi,

I just installed XBMC on a MAC with snow leppard.
I want to add my mp3 which are on a qnap NAS. I added a remote location.

When I browse the NAS with my MAC I can see the mp3's, when I select one mp3 and tell my mac to play it with XBMC it plays it.

I also tried to mount the NAS share at my MAC, then I also see the mp3's listed. And that way I also can play the mp3's pointing it and open with XBMC.

However it won't load the music in my library. Not in both ways I tried.

What could be the problem?
Regards,
Rob

You need to scan the source to the library...

yes scanning the directory to my library didn't help. I tried that. Only the directories show, and not the files.

Yesterday a part of the files showed, when I wanted to have them all in my library I changed the permissions to 777 and I changed the onwership. And later when it didn't help I changed everything back. But since then no luck, nothing but just the directories in my library.

Rob

ok, well since I am a noob in XBMC it doesn't mean I am a noob in pc's. I use a mixed environment. Btw I solved the issue. I have a linux box for downloading, a NAS to have storage, a mac and a windows box.

Because I like to share knowledge.
For some reason all the mp3's became system and hidden. With a simple attrib command on my windows box they became not hidden and not system.
Just "attrib /S -s -h" did the job.
