Thanks - really appreciate your help, but I cannot seem to get this to work, although I seem to have made some progress.

First, there are definitely audio files in the valid folder that the content directory is set to. It's my main (only) digital music folder called "FLAC Audio Files." I can see the files in this folder on my computer and play them over my network from this location using other music server software. So the files are definitely there. The "FLAC Audio Files" folder is organized very simply with a folder for each artist, and a sub-folder for each album, like this:

FLAC Audio Files
-Allman Brothers
--Brothers and Sisters
--Eat a Peach
-Beatles
--Abbey Road
--Let It Be
-Beck
--Guero
--Odelay

Etc.

In addition to pointing the content directory to the "FLAC Audio Files" folder, I added another path to the "Beck" subfolder as a test. Now, on my OPPO BDP under the MinimServer, I am able to see:

[folder view]
-Beck
-->>tag view
-->>hide contents
-->>Beck
-FLAC Audio Files
-->>tag view
-->>hide contents
-->>FLAC Audio Files

But there are absolutely no audio files anywhere. All the folders are empty.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Is it possibly a limitation of the Oppo BDP93?
If I recall correctly, there were several firmware updates to resolve specific network related issues. Is your player firmware upto date?
