CBers 6771 Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 If I remove my Photos, the library scan completes OK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Looking through that last log, I found some photos that were causing problems, so I've deleted them. This time, the scan sticks at 24.5%. Log is attached, but I can't see any problems with photos. Only the fact that the scan library task starts, but never finishes, until I abort the process by restarting the server... server-63564617691.txt can you show a screenshot of the complete contents of this folder? \\degas\Pictures\Photos\Home Photos 4 Thanks.

gcoupe 63 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 can you show a screenshot of the complete contents of this folder? \\degas\Pictures\Photos\Home Photos 4 Thanks. Luke, here you go: They are mostly scans of old slides. The "F and F - up to 1999" folder is the same, but with a couple of short home videos (with metadata in sidecar files).

rikiwi 32 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 (edited) I'm experiencing the same problem and have temporarily removed the photo folder from the library as the stuck scan interrupts any other video playing. I'm on Beta version 3.0.5582.1. No doubt the devs will find the cause before too long. Edited April 15, 2015 by rikiwi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcv 3 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I have the same problem re sticking, however I dont have a photos folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranquil 93 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Same here with Version 3.0.5582.1. Scan stuck at 47% and can not be stopped. I need to restart the server. Removed all my pictures now, will see if it work now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justpig 27 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Hello. I have the same issue. I followed the suggestion and removed the pictures folder from the library and now it completes the scan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5049 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 It may not be just photos. I have 80K+ songs and the app always stalls at ~22.4% before completing since the last major release. My scans now run from 25 - 35 minutes long now with 95+ cpu usage and before they ran in less than 5 minutes. Tried removing the music folder and it scans rather quickly. However, I did also add anywhere from 5 - 20 pictures of artwork scans to the exrafanart folder for each album too, so maybe it is pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6771 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 It may well be folder structure, but nothing has changed my end. It's only happened since ImageMagick was introduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabbera 23 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 The scan doesn't use image magick in retrospect. (I'm 90% sure) only when you browse. I've just added a 300k photo library with no issue. Please list any plugins frost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just added a 300k photo library with no issue. Please list any plugins frost. Doesn't it use it to create the folder images though? Is that 300k photos in one folder, or across many multiple? As you know, I removed all of my plugins and the scan still stalled. . Edited April 16, 2015 by CBers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1977 67 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I kept on having issues over the last year with library scan being. I have not succeeded to point to the main reason and I believe there are different reasons for it. I believe the image extractor plays a larger role of this, but cannot say for sure. Also, special characters may be one of the reasons for it? Please see the thread on this that I just opened. You may want to look into this whether you may face the same situation? http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/20416-error-with-special-characters/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5049 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I've got many special characters like that, but I'm not seeing any time stamps which would indicate how long it spent trying to open that file. It could be a long or very short time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBers 6771 Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 I completely took my Photos out and have been putting them back in, year by year. Scans have been running through so far. (famous last words) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbit1543 105 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I took the plunge and added all my photos back and the scan is completing with the latest beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1977 67 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 The "step-wise" approach has always been necessary for me when adding large libraries. Anyone any idea why adding step-wise works, while adding a large chunk of new movies/music/photos leads to the "stuck phenomenom"? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5049 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Version 3.0.5582.2 doesn't seem to help here. I have never added photos though, just scans of all artwork for music albums. Still stalls at ~10.17 and then again at ~24.4% before it continues and finishes. Scans run 25+ minutes now where as before they were just a few minutes before the big release. I can live with it though, I just turn off real-time monitoring and refresh when I want because of the cpu usage now. The price I pay for an old dual core processor I guess Edited April 16, 2015 by FrostByte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
