HiFiBerryOS NAS problems

Hi,

I am very hapy with HiFiBerryOS, but have problems setting up my local NAS library properly.

I followed the guide here: https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/hifiberryos/hifiberryos-handling-local-music-libraries/

mp3 files.

In the library there are mp3s as well as FLACs. But they seem to behave different.
While FLACs produce this feedback

INFO: root - /data/library/music/Musik/FLAC/Bloodhound Gang/Hefty Fine

For a whole album. MP3s produce this for every song:

WARNING: root - can't handle /data/library/music/Musik/Sortiert/Bon Jovi/Lost Highway/01 - Lost Highway.mp3

I already tried different mount options, according to this thread https://support.hifiberry.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/8061679755421-Library-on-NAS-doesn-t-work
But unfortunately this doesn't help.

cover images.

The NAS shares are read-only and I assume this is the reason for the following errors:
INFO: root - /data/library/music/Musik/Sortiert/Bonobo/Dial 'M' For Monkey

INFO: root - creating thumbnail for /data/library/music/Musik/Sortiert/Bonobo/Dial 'M' For Monkey/Folder.jpg 
convert: unable to open image '/data/library/music/Musik/Sortiert/Bonobo/Dial 'M' For Monkey/cover-thumb.jpg': Read-only file system @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/3537.

 

My setup

My smbmounts.conf looks like this:

Musik;//10.1.1.148/Musik;judith;verysecretpassword;noserverino,ro,cache=none
Hoerspiele;//10.1.1.148/Hoerspiele;judith;verysecretpassword;noserverino,ro,cache=none
Kinderlieder;//10.1.1.148/Kinderlieder;judith;verysecretpassword;noserverino,ro,cache=none

The errors occur if I run 

/opt/hifiberry/bin/mount-smb.sh

Any help would be very apperciated!
Best regards
Samuel

  Anybody an idea?

  As you already noticed, mounting the NAS read-only creates problems. Mount your shares read-write first and try again.

  Thanks a lot for your response!

  I am wondering why HiFiBerryOS needs write access for the share. Is there information what is written to the share?

  I thought read access should be enough to play music and read the metadata...

  At least covers will be written.

  Okay,
  started again. Only with a part of my library to speed things up.

  mount-smb.sh still throws a lot of warnings:

  INFO: root - /data/library/music/Kinderlieder/Zuruckgehalten/Die drei ???/Die drei ??? 32 und der Ameisenmensch 
  WARNING: root - can't handle /data/library/music/Kinderlieder/Zuruckgehalten/Die drei ???/Die drei ??? 32 und der Ameisenmensch/die drei fragezeichen -32- Der Ameisenmensch.mp3

  Not all mp3 files are affected, but it seems to happen only to those with embedded cover art in the id3 tag.

   

  Musicbrainz lookup doesn't seem to work:

  INFO: root - processing /data/library/music/Kinderlieder/Freigegeben/Anna Czerwinska-Rydel/Die Ton-Angeber 
  INFO: musicbrainzngs - HTTP error 502 
  INFO: musicbrainzngs - retrying after delay (#1) 
  INFO: musicbrainzngs - HTTP error 502 
  INFO: musicbrainzngs - retrying after delay (#2) 
  INFO: musicbrainzngs - HTTP error 502 
  WARNING: root - couldn't retrieve album data for /data/library/music/Kinderlieder/Freigegeben/Anna Czerwinska-Rydel/Die Ton-Angeber/01 - Die Tonangeber.flac

  This seems to happen on the first lookup, so a rate limit shouldn't be the problem here.

   

  Thanks again for your help!

  Actually after the last album nothing seems to happen. The process is still running, but since 14h nothing new is can be seen.

  These are the last messages
