It will scan it. In mine it then creates list of authors, albums, genres,.. a lot.
On my machine it finishes scanning with a music source called Music (the name of the top-level directory) and the directory structure under that, but not the actual music files. The second time produced the same but with the source called Music(2). :(
I had not used it before for music and I don't quite like it.
Try this. On the top of the "Music" page I have a row named "Categories".
Ah, I don't? I have a list with Playlists at the top, Files in the middle and Music add-ons at the bottom.
At the right end of that row it will say "Archives".
I don't see Archives anywhere.
This is the actual directory and file view.
The Files item is the actual directory and file view on my machine.
I was translating from Spanish. It is the same thing.
Hit enter on one of the files and it starts playing that file, then the next...
But as I say, it shows me the directory structure but there are no files shown in the directories.
Maybe you did not install it complete (from packman) and it does not recognize the extensions.
Kodi is designed for media centers, not exactly for computers.
Well, it claims to run on pretty much anything. So far it hasn't crashed.
Yes, it does runs on a lot of hardware, it is true. Android phones, for instance.
It is a very good program :-)
What I meant with "not exactly for computers" I meant that it is often used on things that do not have actually a keyboard and mouse. It may be an infrared remote like on TVs.
For playing music on a computer I prefer other things, like Clementine, Amarok, Audacious... there are a number of good audio players, some complex, some simple.
Yeah, I was just experimenting. I tried its photo album and find that worse than various other programs, so I thought I'd try the music and so far that's a total fail. I don't watch videos much on my PC. So I don't think kodi is a very good program for me.
I did not know it handled photos. It is a good idea for the TV set on the sitting room ;-) - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
