MusicIP Headless w/ MergerFS (FUSE)

$

Hey, I've been running mhddfs for a while now and MusicIP was able to read my pooled mountpoint fine. However, recently, I switched to MergerFS due to some weird seg-fault errors that mhddfs was throwing. Overall, MergerFS way better, completely stable, faster & still maintained. However, when I tried to add new music, MusicIP doesn't see any files. I tried passing in a single mounted drive and it works fine, but when I switch to the pooled mount, it no longer reads it. The owner & permissions on both the real device as well as the FUSE mount are the same. It seems that for some reason, MusicIP can't correctly navigate to the pooled path. Has anyone else here had any experience with this? Is there a way to analyze the files using the individual drives, but then change the path in the default.m3lib after the fact, so LMS will recognize it as the same file?

I thought that maybe I could use a Windows box to do the fingerprinting and LMS would pick that up, but I think I run into the same problem, since MusicIP does need to be running on my server w/ the correct paths in order to work.

A last ditch effort I thought of was to break my LMS library up into the real devices (e.g. add /mnt/data/disk1/music, /mnt/data/disk2/music, etc...) and then running MusicIP similarly so the paths match. But that completely defeats the purpose of my drive pooling (/storage/music).

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
