The command
docker run --name swingmusic -p 1971:1970 \ -v /path/to/music:/music -v /path/to/config:/config \ --restart unless-stopped geoffrey45/swingmusic

should be

docker run --name swingmusic -p 1971:1970 \ -v /path/to/music:/music -v /path/to/config:/config \ --restart unless-stopped ghcr.io/swing-opensource/swingmusic

Also, mounting two /music directories errors out

Can you provide the error produced when you mount two folders to /music? It's hard to know what is happening without some kind of error message.

Thanks.

Sorry for the lack of informations, was late and I forgot to attach the error output.

I unfortunately lost the original one, and I would need to restart the service to copy paste the exact error.

EDIT: docker, not docker-compose, my bad
Anyway, docker complained about mounting multiple folders onto the same path.

If you need a more detailed error, Ill set up a new machine to reproduce it.

A possible solution (but it is on top of my mind so is probably not optimized) is to make /music mountpoint as a link to something like /music_folders/ and provide the user with the option to add its folders as subfolders of the /music_folder/ directory.

If i understood the software logic, everything under /music is recursively scanned

Alternatively, the user can just mount the folders to others paths, then inside Swing Music, they can add them as root directories in settings. Something like this:

-v /path/to/music: /music
-v /path/to/rock: /rock

Thank you for your suggested approach. I'll look into how I can do that.
