nVidia Shield

I had a weird problem trying to import files from a USB stick on a Shield today. I had to go to the Shield settings for Storage and tell it to read the media files. Then import worked.

I ran into this as well with an external hard drive connected to the Shield. I believe this is a quirk of newer Android versions because Android will only allow the app to import files the OS recognizes as media files.

update: cleared the app data and tried connecting to my library again. And still, just endless loading...

Would you be willing to make a library backup and e-mail it to brad at jriver so I can test it out? This is a problem I've seen before, but usually if I back out and try again, it will load the next time.

I tested Kodi on my Shield and it has no problem importing all of my music and videos from the externally connected hard drive.
