What happens if you edit the TOC (notepad is fine) and add some entries to
point to files that Audioton is not otherwise seeing?
Tne syntax is pretty easy - and certainly made much easier by
copying/editing existing entries.

If you cycle the Audiotron, to pick up the now .toc file, and it then can
reach the file it imples that the issue is perhaps loading related (issuing
requests to the box to scan lots of directories) rather then the
files/diretories being unaccessible to the Audiotron.

(personally ... I have a Linksys NSLU2 (hacked) and am storing video via it.
I did put a few music files there as well to verify that I could reach it
from the Audiotron and it worked fine)
