I have a Fiio portable music player, which presents as a removeable drive when connected to a computer.
Back in my Windows days, I used to use a program called MusicBee to sync my music collection to it.
MusicBee has a number of features that I found very useful, and which I am struggling to find a Linux-based replacement for.
Specifically, I would like a program that can:
- Sync files to a removeable drive direct from an SMB share
- Be able to re-sort files into different folders on the sync target, so that ../Artist/Album can become ../A-G (for instance)/Artist/Album.
The latter is extremely useful because I have a large amount of music and if all the Artist folders are in the root directory browsing on the Fiio player becomes stupidly slow.
Thinking about it, I suppose that I don't actually need the program to be music-specific. Any sync program that does those things ought to be able to do the job.
I would be very grateful for recommendations!
