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).
