Add MacOS AFPS support for Node X

Using MacOS Ventura I formatted a 1TB flash drive to exFat and also tried FAT32. In both cases I tried copying my 0.5Tb music collection to the flash drive. I learned that MacOS would take days to copy the files. This is not an issue when the flash drives are formatted for the AFPS file system. Unfortunately MacOS's problem with the FAT32 and exFat file systems makes using a flash drive with the wonderful Node X impossible.

I wish the Node X OS could support the AFPS file system.

  Hi, I have the same issue. Looks like BlueSound does not care about people that using apple products.

  PS: I did connect an external HDD to an old MacBook Pro and start sharing.
  On the Node X you can connect to a network share and that works.

  I decided to use a NAS to serve music since it let's all my Apple devices access the music.
