A bit of research didn't reveal anything, so Im creating a new post in hopes of solving a simple issue.
I use iTunes 8 on my MBP with my library of about 19,000 MP3s hosted on an external system (Fedora Core box on the same network). When I make changes to the music outside of iTunes (updating tags, adding songs, et cetera) and then launch iTunes it doesn't appear to refresh its understanding of the library; it marks many of the changed songs as missing and does not see the newly added songs.
The SMB share iTunes uses to access the library is read-only because I dont want it adjusting the files themselves, but I do want iTunes to recognize changes to the underlying library. Is such a thing possible?
Thanks.
