      I have been using Strawberry for a few months on Pop OS and everything works well except that one folder fails to be picked up in a scan so it is never indexed and included. I can browse to the folder and add or replace the playlist with the contents of the folder but the scan fails. Everything is in the "Music" folder (/home/username/Music) with the convention that each folder inside Music represents an album from an artist, e.g. "artist - album name". The following all play, scan, and index fine:
      Enya - Enya
      Enya - Watermark
      Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
      etc, etc.
      Enya - A Day Without Rain fails to scan or register even though I can manually browse to the folder using Strawberry and add or replace the the playlist with the album.
      I'm stumped. Any ideas? All other albums index and play fine.

        After spending time comparing folders, permissions, etc. I finally discovered that the CD ripper for this particular folder had not included the .m3u playlist file. Re-ripping the CD corrected the scanning and indexing of this folder/title for both Strawberry and the miniDLNA server running from my RapsberryPi.
