Synology file format for Media Monkey

Post by vxl65703 »

I have a question about file format structure on Media Monkey 4.1.25.1895, My NAS is a Synology DS1512+. I noticed that when I play songs using Media Server in Media Monkey the file appears in this format "09-Shake a leg.flac/AC/DC-Back in Black", but if I play a song through Media Monkey My Computer it will just give me the file name (Shake a leg) which I prefer. Does anyone know why the file structure appears in two different formats and is it possible to make all of the file structures uniform ?

MediaMonkey Server uses DLNA to access the Media Server on the NAS. This (DLNA) presents files in that format and this can't be changed.

My Computer on the other hand access the File Server on the NAS which works the same as accessing a local drive. You can scan this structure into MediaMonkey and then use Music to access the files this way.
