Refreshing File Listing in n-Stream

Posted by: kealeyr on 15 August 2012

I've recently bought a Unitiqute and consequently I'm expanding my collection of downloaded music fairly rapidly.  I've noticed that the file listing in n-Stream often takes quite a while to catch up when I've added new folders or reorganised existing ones.

 

Is there a way of forcing n-Stream to do an immediate rescan of my NAS to update its listing?

If not, I presume the App just rescans in the background every so often - I'd be interested to know how often.

 

Thanks for any info!

n-Stream itself does not rescan your NAS, it just pulls the data from the UPnP client (the Qute) and the Qute simply pulls the list as presented to it by the UPnP server - so you need to get your UPnP server to rescan its folders...

OK - that makes sense - thanks.

The HDX is similar, with new rips taking a while to show up, but hey, just listen to the music and relax!!

That's a little different - that's the time it takes for the rip to be processed after ripping and to be uploaded to the main music store and added to the database...
