Skip files with leading . in Library

Hi there,

I pretty new to Volumio but I encountered a maybe simple problem. I copied some music over to a usb stick using a Mac. And what happens is the MacOS creates an additional “hidden” file with a leading “.” for every file. So I end up in a double of files which will be hidden by the finder in macOS and also by linux with a normal “ls” without -a. This seems to be normal Mac behaviour, but now mpd also indexes those files and want to play them which fails. The “real” files works perfectly.

Is there any way to “filter” such files in library creation?

Thank you
Nino
