well..first I would change the default password....just a thought

Second.I had no issues logging in and snatching that Chamillionare album..thanks so no performance issues there..hehe

Seriously, you may want to organize ur folders a lil better.
I noticed that ur sharing ur entire "D:" drive. There are several non movie or music folders that should not be shared in subsonic.

So try to categorize things.....create seperate folder for Movies and music.
Then add separate entires in subsonic for each:

Music "D:\Music"
Movies "D:\Movies"

Just wait for it to finish indexing all ur music folders and you should be good.

Depending on the size of the share, it may take a few minutes.
But as i said, you need to reorg your folders....Having Subsonic look at directories like "System Volume Information" is a no-no and a waste of time. Anyways http://server.elofty.net:8080/subsonic/login.view? works fine for me.

Hi lofty,

For your own safety, please don't expose your server on the open internet before you've changed the admin password. A malevolent user can easily gain access to all your files.

Regards,

that is just the thing, i cant access it to change the password or anything.

ok now sorted, server load must have been high when i tried it before!
