VLC for Windows 10, VLC for Windows 8.1, VLC for Windows Phone 8.1 unable to discover completely big music library
To repro this issue, copy a big music library on a Micro SD card. 55 GB of M4A (AAC) or WMA files. VLC application running on Windows 8.1, Windows Phone 8.1, Windows 10 is unable to discover the whole library. The discovery process seems a foreground process which is stopped each time the application is closed.
Groove running on the same devices is able to discover the whole library. Apparently Groove uses a background process to discover the music files on a micro SD. If I want to play the music stored on my microSD card on my Windows devices, so far the only solution is to use groove ;-(.
