Adding files from directory with sym links

[grantonstar]

Hi,

I keep my music in multiple directories across hard drives so I created a single folder with sym links to the music directories in question. I can ls on the sym links and see my music. However, when trying to scan headphones says it can't find any media.

Is it possible to get headphones to follow sym links?

Could you try the following, and report back to me?

In headphones/librarysync.py, change Line 81 from

for r,d,f in os.walk(dir):

into

for r,d,f in os.walk(dir, followlinks=True):

(Make a copy of the file, and put it back afterwards. This way, auto updating should work fine in the future.)

Just a subtle bump: did you already try this? If it works, I can add it to pull request #1958.

[grantonstar]

Working now. Thanks.

Submitted this fix in pull request #1959.

@grantonstar Can you maybe try the latest develop branch? I reworked this simple fix to prevent infinite recursion. It seems to work, but please test it if you can.
