Hey guys,
Been using emby on Linux for quite some time now.
However after a new install on a clean machine, while importing my existing files. I encountered some performance issues. After looking at it it seems the library scanning process only will utilize 1 core at a time. The ffmpeg process that is forked for the chapter images is explicitly started with -threads 1. Is there any option to increase that ? Or is it limited that way due to locking issues ?
On current systems it would speed up these processes quite a lot if multiple threads where forked. Even if ffmpeg was only forked with -threads 1 it would be possible to start multiple ffmpeg's for multiple media files.
Also it looks like the chapter imaging task limits emby from doing other tasks (like re-importing the .nfo files I have for every media file).
Are there any parameters that can be used to force emby to multi-thread some processes or is this currently not possible ?
