Symlinks not auto updated
Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2015 6:24 pmI am running Serviio 1.5.1 on Debian (Jesse) Linux with Java Server JRE 8u40.
My main media folder is shared, and whenever I make changes in it, they show up automatically now. Very cool.
But I also have several symlinks under that directory to other media folders. Serviio follows and plays things under these links just fine, but I noticed that when I make changes or add to those files, Serviio does not pick up on it, and I have to force refresh via the API, since there is no refresh interval anymore.
So I wonder, is there a way Serviio can auto monitor symlink'd files as well?
Would this work with hard links? Though I prefer not to use them.
