Make Twonky only look at certain dirs for Music, etc

Post by bound4h » Sun Jan 02, 2011 5:33 pm

How can I tell Twonky that my Pictures are here, Videos are here, etc.

All I have found is a root content dir (/mnt/HD_a2/Media), but I have subfolders for each type of media (/mnt/HD_a2/Media/Music, /Pictures, /Movies).

I am using a DNS-323 (NAS) build of version 6.0.23. What's happening is, I have some music videos in the Music folder that I don't want included in the Videos dir of Twonky. And I have some pictures as well in the Music folder (album art, etc) that I don't want coming up in the Pictures dir of Twonky. Can I just say, look here for Pictures, look here for Videos, etc?

I could not find a variable for that in the twonkymedia-server-config.ini and twonkymedia-config.ini.

Is this possible?

Open the Twonky config page in your browser and go to the Sharing page - there you can set up your folders and decide what you want to scan them for; Music, Photos, Videos or all media.
