Sync from mounted network drive

#1

Hi

I am syncing my music which is on a pi running linux via my mac where I have mounted the music folder. I have added it to the Watch Folder list. So far so good, the files are uploaded after a few days and not deleted when I unmounted the folder. But now I have changed some tags, and would propagate these changes to Vox Loop.

But I a afraid of duplicates in the Loop, which I had many when I tried Vox a few years back.

Could you please indicate, if I will have duplicates of these changed files? The file names should be the same.

Thanks,

Rainer

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out.

It depends on which kind of changed you’ve made.

An anti-duplication system is working if tracks are absolutely the same (bitrate, file format and the id3-tags), however, if you have changed something like: bitrate, file format, or id3-tags - they will be displayed as separate tracks, in addition to already uploaded tracks.

Main Tags used for sorting are: Track number, Release Year, Album name, Artist name, etc.

Hope it helps.
