Serviio no longer updates changes in the delivery files in the library.
Is it because I have to buy Serviio again because after updating to v. 2.4
it has stopped working
but it had already stopped giving way before the update
What's wrong
Need help with this
I'm using Win 11 and new PC

Gerd,

I removed your email address from your post. It's not advisable to put something personal like that in a public forum.

No, there's no need to "buy" Serviio if you had a previous license. If your previous license was for from before version 2.0 was released then there are a few features no longer available (MediaBrowser for one) but that wouldn't impact your internal use. Usually when a library folder isn't refreshing with new content, it helps to activate the "poller" method. Open your shared folder in the Serviio console and select the checkbox on this line: "Use the poller mechanism for monitoring this folder". Hit OK and then click "Save" when you're back on the main screen.

More than likely Microsoft did something in a Windows Update that broke the method Serviio was using to monitor a folder for new files. Wouldn't be the first time they've done something like that.
