The FORWARD and REWIND buttons do not work with some songs in my music library

Seeking through a song (holding FWD or REW) only works with certain formats:

MP3, Ogg, FLAC, WAV and AIFF files stored in your SqueezeCenter music library

MP3 and WMA files from online services (if the service supports scanning through songs)

SqueezeCenter can’t find all of my music

Make sure that all of your digital music files are in one place on your computer. You can store all of your files in a single folder, or create subfolders to help organize your music. The software you use to “rip” your CDs to digital files, such as iTunes or Windows Media Player, may already do this.

SqueezeCenter, the software that runs on your computer and delivers your personal digital music collection to your Squeezebox Boom, will scan one folder (and all sub-folders) for your music. If you have music stored in multiple folders, or on different computers, you will have to create shortcuts in the primary music folder so SqueezeCenter can find the other music.

To manually rescan your music collection using SqueezeCenter, click the Basic Settings tab and then click Rescan. To set up SqueezeCenter to automatically rescan your music library periodically, click the Advanced tab and then select “Rescan Music Library” from the pull-down menu on the left.

To rescan your music library using Squeezebox Boom, make sure your Boom is connected to SqueezeCenter, then select Settings > Rescan Music Library. From the following menu you can start a rescan, as well as set up automatic rescanning.

Some of my track names are missing or incorrect

If you know that your songs all have valid tags or that your album art images are fine, you may want to have SqueezeCenter rescan your music collection by doing

the following:

1.Open SqueezeCenter and go to Settings > Basic Settings.

2.Verify that the Music Folder points to the music folder on your computer. If it’s not, enter the correct path and click “Apply.”

3.Scroll down to Rescan Music Library and select “Clear library and rescan everything” in the drop-down box, then click the “Rescan” button. SqueezeCenter will scan your music and rebuild the database it uses to display the information about your collection, including album art.

If you are still experiencing problems, you should delete the cached files SqueezeCenter uses to improve performance and then perform a rescan. To delete the cache, do the following:

1.Stop SqueezeCenter

On Windows, right-click on the SqueezeCenter icon and click “Stop SqueezeCenter”

On Mac OS X, open System Preferences > SqueezeCenter and click on “Stop Server”

2.Remove the Cache folder used by SqueezeCenter

On Windows XP, the default location for the cache folder is: C:\ Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SqueezeCenter\ Cache

On Windows Vista, the default location for the cache folder is: C:\ ProgramData\SqueezeCenter\Cache

On Mac OS X, the default location for the cache folder is: Home > Library > Application Support > SqueezeCenter

3.Restart SqueezeCenter. The scanning process will begin as soon as the server starts.
