Hi All,
there have been some threads here and elsewhere on the relative merits of Catalina, and the Logitech media Server's inability to see libraries / scan music files. One poster said he would need to revert to Mojave (previous Apple OS) to get he hi-fi working again.
I can't speak for every build and every machine but I had exactly this problem and it became really truly vexing, more so since we have just installed a nice new Mac mini that came with Catalina and is likely to be our home computer for the next decade. If this won't work with the SBT I have just made the most enormous error!
After a length of time fiddling with this, so long in fact that I shall demur from any attempt to find out, I discovered the ridiculously easy solution.
Put all you music files, of whatever type, into a shared folder. You'll find this at the users level on the Mac and I expect that LMS will then have no trouble scanning it. All should be back to normal!
