The main issue is probably that the screen is empty. You don't even see "Nothing to sync"? Could you send the logs in this case?
[Sync Location/Settings] button always leads to first/main storage now. So it isn't related. I will change it to lead to first checked storage. |

The issue is actually that MMA doesn't even list External Storage as a possible sync location! What's really confusing though, is how this happened--when I originally tested build 142, synchronization worked correctly. But somehow, overnight, the config for External SD Card went completely missing.

|
|
Are you able to browse the external storage by other application ?
Btw I've fixed the issue with the button. |
|
|
|
ES Explorer or Samsung Explorer can browse the SD Card without issues. Moreover, this issue only occurred beginning with build 142.
Images illustrating the problem are attached, and a debug log was uploaded ~11:20am. |

|
|
According to discussion over IM, it was probably an OS issue... |
|
|
|
Can you please add more details and close if resolved. |

I have same problem with my tablet. I was looking for solution but I found this article which it clarifies sufficiently.
http://www.chainfire.eu/articles/113/Is_Google_blocking_apps_writing_to_SD_cards_/
It looks like a Android bug. |
|
|
|
I've added support to show read only storages in file browser. Such storages are named with "(Read Only)" suffix. |
|
|
|
The original issue is no longer reproducible. Tagging as resolved. |
|

Per IM discussion with Marek, reopening in order to:
- Review read-only volumes detection (Marek)
- Implement support of read-only volumes, i.e. showing their content in the Library, ignoring actions like Delete, etc. (Martin) |
|
|
|
I wonder if that is implemented will it be possible to detect Readonly volumes on Nexus 7 attached with OTG cable?
It will gain MMA great deal of users if possible as they will not be needing additional non-free software. |
|
|
|
Already fixed in build 156. |
|
|
|
Add to playlist doesn't work from file browser in some cases - fixed in build 157. |
|
|
|
Note that Marek is supposed to 'Review read-only volumes detection' (in case it's still necessary). |

After extended tests and debugging Nexus 7 it just do not show any USB devices when connected using OTG Cable.
Nexus Media Importer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.homeysoft.nexususb.importer&hl=en and USB Device Info https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=aws.apps.usbDeviceEnumerator see device without any problems.

Fixed in build 157
I tested several use cases with device with sd card slot and USB port. Both storages were successfully recognized but media from USB storage are be added to library because MediaStore doesn't scan these kind of storages. So we have to wait till we have our own media scanner. But user still can import media from MMW to these storages. These media are visible in library. |
|
|
|
Can you please elaborate fix and how to test as I do not see any changes when using nexus 7? |
|

Nexus 7 is the case that cannot be solved. If this storage is readable, it is visible in options and you should be able to sync over wifi to this storage. After that, these tracks should be visible in library. But the scanner (MediaStore) won't scan any existing track on storage.
I've fixed this for storages that are scanned and are unmountable, typically tablets with SD (not internal microSD but standard "notebook-like") card slot. I've tested it with Asus Transformer. MMA reacts on unmounting/mounting of sd card and shouldn't crash anywhere.
Please note that tracks that are on unmounted sd card are not removed from library but they remains there (to not lose metadata when e.g. just UMS is enabled) and they are just not playable. |

Setting as resolved, Peke please reopen in case you find any issue... |
