At the moment, my workshop PC connects to my NAS, which has 3 libraries (music, blues & classical).
It dumps all of these into the NAS library.
Also, the tagging that works in Windows doesn't appear to work the same way in Linux.
Instead of grouping tracks by album, in Linux most of the tracks are grouped under artists.
which is a PITA as I have a large number of various artist / multiple artist albums.

How are you connecting to the NAS?
If you load the library by choosing it from the lists of libraries under playing now you are using it as a DLNA library which is much less flexible (because not all tag information is transferable over DLNA)  than accessing the NAS files as a mounted share.

I did a Linux Mint 19.1 Tessa install, and of course MC24 works fine with it. ;)

Thanks for the report!

Great instructions, thanks.  I had problems with this step under Ubuntu.  It gave me an error.


--- Code: ---@audio           -       rtprio          100
--- End code ---

So I did a fresh install of the latest Debian Stretch (9.7).  All went well with the install.  But following the Thread Priorities instructions exactly, it didn't take, even though I got no errors.  I see this...

No "99" like I am supposed to see.  Also, I definitely have audio issues as described.  The sound kind of breaks up here and there.  So I guess this is the problem I need to solve.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks, Chris

Awesome Donkey:
You don't need to manually set up thread priorities anymore if you're using the latest MC24 build, it does it automatically. I'd recommend reversing the changes.

The thread priorities part of the tutorial will be removed when MC25 is out.
