Volumio Rivo first impressions

Hi, I am using the NAS provided server (QNAP Music) or Minimserver. The Minimserver is a 3rd party app that can be downloaded onto your NAS. To access these two servers via Volumio, I have the ‘Media Servers’ visible as the source in Volumio. My microSD card is 500GB and my NAS has a 1TB ssd. I have the ‘Music Library’ source visible in Volumio in order to access music on the microsd. No other for this software is required

Thank you. :pray:t2:

MinimServer on a Synology DS1815+ is my solution of choice as well. Sorting the library happens in MinimServer on the NAS and not in Volumio, which makes life much easier for Volumio. MinimServer has many options to configure it according to needs. I have alpha index set for all categories, which allows me to move to artists starting with ‘X’ in a jiffy.

Hi, i would like to know if the Rivo supports folder view when playing local files using a USB thumb drive. Specifically, i need to know if it will respect the way i structured my folders: ‘Genre/Artist/Album/Track’ without any kind of tagging or re-indexing of the files by the device.
Thank you.

Hello,
Yes, of course. The folder structure in Volumio will appear exactly as you have set it up on your USB drive.
