MMA won't add files to library

Post by gandalf »

Hello,

I am jsut trying out MMA for the first time (use MMW a lot) and have the following problem: I use a sync tool (Tresorit) to synchronize my music files to android and they end up there in the folder "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.tresorit.mobile/files/tresorit0019q19k8rdl1lcbn91ux1znWNYautitrO6aG7NiRVWLIwKI00KYRH64" and subfolders thereof. I added this folder to the folder to scan in MMA and used "Check for new/changed media" to resync folder contents. But the music files there do not get added to the library. I can use MMA to browse there and play files from these folders manually though.

What do I have to do so that the files there get recognized?

Cheers!

Sounds like you have Android 4.4 and if I understand it correctly Google doesn't allow Apps to read files from other Apps for security reasons. I thought this was limited to SD cards, which I'm not sure if the files are on one in your case. Also as you're able to play them this may not be the problem.

You can send a debug log from MMA (from About screen) right after scanning of the folder.
