Syncing to Android

JimH:
On Linux, are you using Library Server to serve files located on the Linux machine?  Or DLNA?  Or is there a NAS involved?

You could also test with a faster connection.

Library Server for files located on a Linux machine

GB Ethernet, Windows machine with an USB 3 port. What do you mean by faster connection?

The one thing is the instability of the transfer (whatever reason). But the other is the way that the synching is done. Why does MC not keep track of each single file and update state files accordingly, but just at the end of the synch? Overall potentially slower but more stable. With unstable connections only the last transferred file would be deleted. Also, I sometimes wonder why MC considers a file an update candidate even if no changes occured to the synch settings and the original file has not been touched since last transfer.

It seems the Android device is the issue. After much fiddling around, enabling developer options and setting "leave screen active when charging" multiple synch efforts went smoothly. I don't know whether this is an Android limitation, a bug, or whether clients such as Win11 are the issue, but obviously the disconnect while synching is not JRs affair. So I guess this post can be closed. Maybe the setting should make it to the FAQs...
