Bugmenot Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Old phone was a Pixel 3 with Android 10, now I have a Pixel 4 with Android 11. Settings were copied across automatically, layout, colors, etc are all set up as I had on the old phone, which is what I want. I have a single folder called "Music" in the root of my internal storage that has a few thousand files in it--no subfolders. The changes in 11 are making it difficult to get files to play. VLC is working fine though. Here's a video of me trying to set it up. I must be missing a step; any ideas? The first popup allows me to choose "Internal storage" which I understand would include that folder and all folders underneath it recursively, which is not what I want. So that's why I hit the + and selected that folder. But the "Invalid storage: Please use the sidebar in the system dialog to select the target provider plugin" toast comes up every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Turn off Settings / Misc / File Access Legacy Mode, then go to Settings / Library / Music Folders and re-select your folders. (System may take file access permissions at random from the app rendering direct legacy file access unusable on Android 11). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slykrysis Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I pretty much have the same issue, except my "File Access Legacy Mode" is already turned off. I just freshly installed the app, and I have all of my music under the root folder "Music" on Android, with the subfolders being albums, and then the music files inside that. No matter what I do, I cannot get it to recognize that I have any files on the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Marah Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 The same with me. Fresh reinstall, no "File Access Legacy Mode" enabled. Re-scan does see all my files during actual re-scan (just a few seconds) and once re-scan is done - all zeros. Edited: Max, never mind, it was my fault. During transfer all my music from S8+ to S20+ somehow all music files were lost. Only covers, playlist, jpgs were in the folders. Just reloaded everything from PC and it works. Thanks for the great app! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
