Geoff, when I used picoreplayer with my NAS, I set a static ip address for the NAS and entered the ip address in picoreplayer menus. This was a while back and LMS was installed on the NAS, so not sure if it will help.

PC User though the WD NAS is connected to my BT (Home Hub 5) Router. It is set for sharing.Quote:

Where do I enter the path details?

BTW.. I am able to access and play internet radio files so that part of the installation is OK!
It's on the LMS tab (in advanced), you have three sets of configurations, the first for the Index on the SD card, the second for a USB drive (again you need to install additional file system software if you want to use NTFS), and the third is for a NAS configuration...I tried to put a screen shot up but it was unintelligible ;)Quote:

Hopefully this is more legible...

And a full delta scan, with 7 new albums in 4.5 mins, of a 2.7K CD FLAC collection on the NAS...

Although I am quite tech savvy and persistent I think it is time to give up on this installation. My NAS drive is set for sharing and is accessible to other devices. I have entered the names and passwords correctly and still I cannot access my FLAC files. I can't even access files on a usb drive plugged into the Rpi despite mounting it on the LMS advanced settings. I think the problems are all with LMS rather than PiCore player which works fine with inernet radio.Quote:

Installed everything and rebooted so many times I could open a shoe shop. Time to go back to Volumio I think unless you can see something obviously wrong from this screenshot.Quote:

Thanks
Same problem as when I tried to post a screen shot...I can't read it, perhaps a photo might be more legible?Quote:

Is there anything missing?
Well something is wrong. Not using volumio but last time i tried the new version it sounded very good. Certainly needs looking into
