Hi,
this is not a git-annex problem, but more likely a way some software handles symlinks and/or do file-type detection.
my setup is a following:
- multiple pc/laptop (linux)
- one NAS (debian) - main repo for music/films/photos - all in git-annex
- a Raspberry Pi (Raspbmc) - connected to the TV
I want to share all my films/music/.. to the Pi.
So, i setup a r/o NFS and mounted that in the XBMC.
So far this works, I see directories but XBMC do not recognize the media files.
It works, if I "git-annex edit ..." the file.
My _assumption_ is, that it follows the symlink, finds a file with no extension - and ignores that.
In XBMC-config there is a list of supported filetypes by extension. ( .avi,.mpg,.foo,.bar )
What I have think of so far:
- tell XBMC somehow to load all the files (did not work)
- having some kind of (FUSE?) filter, which hides the symlink in a transparent way
- creating via script hard-links in a seperate folder with same structure, mount that.
- using some alternative to NFS ( like ftp, smb ) or a other kind of media-server (server-side)
any comments, ideas ?
If i find a solution, I'll post it here.
