Subsonic Forum

Hi All:

I would like to be able to use the Newest function on the home screen, but I am having the following problem. When I look at this tab the same folders are always displayed even when I upload new media. The reason for this is that they are reported as being created in the year 2046. The strange thing is when I look at the files in explorer it gives the right date of creation (or at least in this decade). I know this is a strange, and potentially unique problem, but does anyone have any ideas on how I could fix this? I have included a screenshot to show the behavior.



Thanks!

You'll be fine in 36 years, or you might try doing a manual search update.

Go to Settings/Search thern click on Update search index now.

Hope it helps.

What are the times in the rest of the app?
I knew subsonic was cool but I didn't think it could time warp?

Thanks for the replies, but I have already updated the search index multiple times and it stays the same. As for the times in the rest of the app, I am not exactly sure what you mean? Are you are referring to the album data shown when browsing? Unfortunately Subsonic doesn't allow you to modify the created date. And I am not sure how to do it in Linux, frankly because I didn't think that the file system stored that data. I am thinking it is a problem with the way that Subsonic is reading the data on the file, because it shows up correctly when I look at it in explorer (for instance). At this point I am at a loss, but would really like to use this functionality. Please help!

My be this help... Move album out from SS music folder. Update search index. Move album back to SS and update search index again.

So I tried your idea stozher, and when it was gone it was removed from the Newest pane, however as soon as I put it back in the SS folder it came back just like before. Here is the log message:

Code: Select all

[12/8/10 3:16:19 AM CST]   DEBUG   SearchService   Logically undeleting info for album /var/subsonic/media/Music/Breakbot. Found on disk.

It's almost as if the index wasn't really updated, but rather bandaged when the file was removed, and subsequently unbandaged when I put it back.

Stop server. Remove /var/subsonic/subsonic12.index. Start server...
