Per user folder access

[jjbrash2012]

I think it would be great to be able to specify folder access per user. For example, I would like to share the music folder with all users on my subsonic server, but I don't want to share my home video folder with all users.

This is supported with Madsonic, which is a "fork" of Subsonic.

I would love to see this as well. I'm running 2 subsonic services to achieve this feature and it's a pain, especially for upgrades.

I'd love this feature too. Mainly to expose certain music for my children that is appropriate.

Exactly my reason...

I wish I knew if this was a coming feature. Madsonic has it but it's still in beta and I don't know if it will work with iSub, etc. I love subsonic so much but to me this is an important missing feature.

This is would be a great feature - i have kids of different ages, and i would like the parental control capability.

[willieb]

I have young kids as well. I was running 2 Subsonic service instances to try and get by while waiting on this feature to be implemented.

I gave up and I moved to Madsonic, Madsonic is awesome I just hope dev continues, not to say that I wouldn't come back if Subsonic finally offered it.

I have an 4 yrs old son and i need this function for him too.

thanks, joern

I gave up on Subsonic for this feature and went to Madsonic; per user folder access works great...

[redranger]

Yeah, this is exactly what I seek. Would be fantastic. Will take a look at Madsonic until this is hopefully implemented in Subsonic.

Thank you.....

As far as I'm concerned, this is a requirement for the standard Subsonic server to support video. I will not put any video on it without the ability to control access by user.

I just looked at 4.9beta. This makes NO sense to me on why this feature isn't already implemented, or at least being worked on. Why isn't it???? Very frustrating...

[gumsmock]

Just to add to the voices: I'm running two Subsonics too simply because of this. This would be a really fantastic feature.

[willieb]

Bump, still waiting on this feature.

I also ran 2 subsonic services just because of this missing feature. PITB. Madsonic is out of beta now and still working great for me, but I'd still like to try subsonic again.
