muscan: File scanner for Museek

NAME

Muscan - File scanner for Museek

SYNOPSIS

muscan [-c <filename>] [--config <filename>] [-b] [--buddy] [-v] [--verbose] [-r] [--rescan] [-n] [--noscan] [-s <directory>] [--share <directory>] [-u <directory>] [--unshare <directory>] [-l] [--list] [-h] [--help]

DESCRIPTION

Muscan scans paths & files to be shared by museekd(1). It creates a database of files, with meta-data for MP3 and OGG Vorbis files, if Vorbis support was compiled in. There are two available shares databases, Normal and Buddies-Only. Buddies-Only is an optional shares database that, if enabled, is only accessable by the users you've chosen as "Buddies".

Before running muscan, you will need a configured museekd, which can be done with musetup(1) or fI>musetup-gtk(1), and add some shared paths with either of the setup tools or with muscan(1).

Muscan accepts the following options:

-c <filename>, --config <filename>

Use a different config file.

-s <directory>, --share <directory>

-u <directory>, --unshare <directory>
