Failed to save the music collection path

This setting specifies the folder which will be scanned for music.

Note: When the path is changed, any previously scanned files outside the new path are removed from the collection and any playlists.

Specify folders within your music collection path which shall be excluded from the scanning. Show more…

You can use the wild cards '?', '*', and '**':

• ? matches any one character within a path segment
• * matches zero or more arbitrary characters within a path segment
• ** matches zero or more arbitrary characters including path segment separators '/'

Paths with a leading '/' character are resolved relative to the user home directory and others relative to the music library base path.

Changes to the excluded paths will only take effect upon rescan.

Many features of the Music app are based on the metadata stored in the audio files. However, scanning this data may consume a lot of time on some systems using external storage. When disabled, the library structure is built based on the file and folder names only.

Changes on this setting take effect only upon rescan of the library.

This action resets all the scanned tracks and all the user-created playlists. After this, the collection can be scanned again from scratch.

This may be desirable after changing the excluded paths, or if the database would somehow get corrupted. If the latter happens, please report a bug to the issue tracker.

This action erases all the stations shown in the "Internet radio" view.

This action erases all the channels shown in the "Podcasts" view.

Show desktop notification when the playing song changes. You also need to have the desktop notifications allowed in your browser for this site.

Unlike the other settings, this switch is stored per browser and not per user account.

You can browse and play your music collection from external applications which support either Ampache or Subsonic API.

Use this address to browse your music collection from an Ampache compatible player. If this URL doesn't work try to append '/server/xml.server.php'.

Use this address to browse your music collection from a Subsonic compatible player.

Here you can generate passwords to use with the Ampache or Subsonic API. Separate passwords are used because they can't be stored in a really secure way due to the design of the APIs. You can generate as many passwords as you want and revoke them at anytime.

There is no settings UI for the server-wide settings of the Music app but some settings are available by adding specific key-value pairs to the file {{filename}}. The available keys are documented here.
