Serviio

The new version of Serviio works really great on a Synology-Nas. Thank you very much.

At the moment I have only found a small issue. Have someone an idea how I can exclude the synology thumfiles like SYNOPHOTO_THUMB to add to the catalog?

I think this is one for Zip to answer. Since all platforms will have their own specific exclusions - should this be something that's defined in profiles.xml perhaps?

.. or as a System property as a comma separated list perhaps: eg. serviio.libraryExclude = "SYNOPHOTO_THUMB.*, *.thb, *\.picasaoriginals\*.*"
Note the last one would exclude the whole folder and subfolders.

Would also address:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=19183&p=101592 and
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18442&p=98823 and
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21271

In the interim:

• If all of these files live in the same folder you can stop it being added by adding an empty file (empty text file should do it) called .nomedia to the folder. Version 1.5+ required. See https://bitbucket.org/xnejp03/serviio/i ... -directory.
• The only other thing I can think of is to hide all of these files and then ensure the "Include hidden files" is not ticked on the Library, Shared Folders section of Serviio Console.

Thank you for the hint but "-Dserviio.libraryExclude = "SYNOPHOTO_THUMB.*"" doesn't seems to work. I think the property doesn't exists.
SYNOPHOTO seems to be files generated by the box. I think I can't disable it.

If someone have another idea, I'm open to test it

best regards

No, it doesn't exist - t'was a suggestion for a potential future development. Sorry, I wasn't clear.

I'll raise a bit bucket for it and zip can work through whether he wants to pursue it and the priority. I'm not aware of any other way of doing it in the current release.

Already a bitbucket request in the system: https://bitbucket.org/xnejp03/serviio/i ... -filtering. Have added the above as a suggestion.

Step back. The case to add a file .nomedia seems to work.

But I have a small issue with it:
If the content of a folder is already added to the library and then you add the file to the folder, the content will not removed from the library.

My workaround is to remove the whole path from the library and re-add it. time expansive, but works.
