Volumio not finding all music

Help and Support Help

Hey @robg,

I have reviewed your log and the thread history. Several observations:

  1. Version discrepancy

Your opening post states you flashed Volumio 3.779. Your log shows Volumio 3.886. These are different versions. Either you upgraded between posts without mentioning it, or you provided a log from a different system. This matters for diagnosis.

  1. Duplicate NAS mounts

Your log shows the same share mounted twice:

//192.168.0.42/Music on /mnt/NAS/TrueNAS
//192.168.0.42/Music on /mnt/NAS/Music

You added the same NAS path twice with different alias names. This wastes system resources and creates confusion. You only need one.

  1. SMB protocol version

Both mounts use vers=3.1.1. This is a known issue on Volumio 4.x/Bookworm causing incomplete library scans, missing folders, and metadata problems. It has been documented extensively in the community forum, including the Alpha, Beta and Stable testing thread.

This is the actual cause of your “25% music found” problem - not permissions.

Fix:

  • Go to Settings, then My Music, then Sources
  • Edit your NAS entry
  • Under Advanced Options, set: vers=2.1
  • Remove the duplicate mount
  • Save and perform a full rescan
  1. Credential format

Your mount shows an email address as the username. Using an email address as a Samba username is non-standard. If this is your actual TrueNAS local user, it will work but is unusual. If you intended to use a proper NAS account as Wheaten suggested, create one with a simple username.

  1. Attention to detail

I am not trying to start a fight here - I am interested in facts only. Accurate diagnosis depends on accurate information.

You claim 8-10 years Linux experience and many years using Volumio. The thread history shows otherwise. Facts speak for themselves:

  • You did not know ssh requires username@host syntax
  • You executed ssh 192.168.0.249 repeatedly despite being shown the correct command multiple times
  • You asked where log files are located after being given the exact URL
  • You asked how to share a log after being shown screenshots
  • You did not read the linked SSH documentation
  • You posted a log from a different Volumio version than reported

Experience is demonstrated through actions, not claims. The volunteers here provided correct guidance repeatedly. Following instructions exactly as written would have resolved this faster.

  1. Solution

Your problem is very likely SMB protocol version, rather than permissions. Set vers=2.1 in your NAS source advanced options and rescan. The permissions discussion was a reasonable diagnostic path given incomplete information, but the log confirms the actual cause.

Kind Regards,

Thank you for the detailed reply.
Ok, I have edited the share name ,and path of my music so I can go to advanced options, which reads:
Music as Alias, and the path is \192.168.0.42\Music
I have entered vers=2.1 in the options box, above ‘Hide Advanced Options’, but after I have saved it, on checking it reverts back to vers=3.11.

Also, if you could remind me, what do I use for username and password, is it volumio and volumio or that of my NAS server. I ask because I have forgotten.

Thanks

Maybe you should start reading your own created topic, I did write it in one of the replies.

44

So is it volumio and volumio.
Anyway, no matter what I use it doesn’t save, as it reverts back to what was already there as does vers=2.1 doesn’t save either

@robg,

“One picture is worth a thousand words”

Advanced → Options

Log evidence → persists

I trust my results.

Kind Regards,

46

Yep, I trust your results too.
As all the mounting tests I’ve preformed during beta :wink:

47

@nerd ,
Yes that is what I put in options, but it won’t save, as I said above.

Just for information, I have now installed version 2.777 from 2020, and the setup was easy with all my music tracks showing in volumio now

Oh and I just tried version 4 again but neither 127.0.0.1 or volumio.local work for me and found that other users have the same problem. I scanned my network for any ip address that might match volumio, but it only finds version 2 which I am using. Nor is there any ip address for version 4 on my network in my routers listing of devices.

Thanks for your time.
