Changing the Store name
Posted by: analog414 on 02 September 2013
Can I go into the Synology and edit a store name? I did try and the Unity SSD turned red in the store location. Would I have to make a new shared folder, promote it to a store and move all the contents?
I'd say that it's a bad idea. I am not sure how the uServe will track the change -- I suspect that it'll just report that the store it's looking for is unavailable. At that point if you identify the renamed store . . . not sure what'll happen. Worst case -- you have to re-rip all of your cd's.
A share would be different probably, but a store, I'd not play with it.
If you do want to change the Store name, you could set up a new store with the desired name and than move albums from the old store to the new, using the web interface.

That's a good suggestion! There is a "Move Music" feature on the "Manage Music" menu using the web interface.
Interesting! I do see the "Move Music" feature on the Naim interface.
Does this mean "DO NOT" move music from store to store in the Synology web interface?

That's right. If you do it on the nas (Synology), the uServe is going to have no idea what's going on. Let the uServe do it so that the music is / remains indexed properly.
Big thanks Bart, I only have 10 cd's ripped because I am two weeks from getting the Streamer and DAC. I have a feeling when I do, I will then see the errors of my ways.
I have about 800 live master cdr's that I need to rip and ALL will show "unknown". I now understand move music from store to store (Ricks_CD > Live_Music) via Naim WI.
What about naming all these shows and tracks. Also some of these cdr's are not tracked.
Best way to name these files and is it OK to use my software to break up some of these single tracks and save in the "Live_Music" store?
It sounds like you've got a large number of cd's of live music performances, where the files are not tagged. Is that right?
What format are the files? .mp3? .wav? .cda?
Let's start with answers to those questions and people here can probably offer suggestions.

They are all analog tape (reel to reel & cassette) > Naim 52 pre-amp > CDR600 recorder.
So the cdr's are .cda format
Well if they are .cda format, you should be able to rip them to .flac
And then you'll have to manually add in all the tags / metadata There are programs for Windows and OS X that'll do that just fine, but you'll have to do it all one cd and each track at a time.
