Guess it’s possible there’s a send client incompatibility issue (though the command line seems to confirm the action send using either syntax below, and I’ve assumed since kodi-send is packaged, it’s updated when OSMC is), so I’ve tried both (a) using the web interface update library function, and (b) using the web interface configuration options to set the audio library to update on startup. The logs for that scenario seem to show the scan starting at 11:38:53, and completing rather quickly with an event soon afterward: “11:38:54.092 T:2786325488 NOTICE: My Music: Scanning for music info using worker thread, operation took 00:00”
Command line tells me the version of OSMC on the RPi is 2017.10-1, and on the Vero 1 where, as you say, I’m still successfully the first syntax below, the version reported by the command line is also 20173.10-1
action syntax I’ve been using historically:
xbmc-send --action=“updateLibrary(audio)”
syntax I’ve tried as part of this thread investigations:
kodi-send --action=“updateLibrary(audio)”
Thanks for continued input.
