Tranquil 93 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Hello Devs. I'm on a Windows 7 machine and noticed, that every time I add new material to my media folders the complete library gets a rescan. This causes to a huge delay of the new items being added to the library if your entire library is as huge as mine. Isn't it possible to just scan the new created items instead of all? Should be possible on Windows, dont know about other Systems... 3
aspdend 177 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 +1 - I like the sound of this - a limited scan of new items with a full scan done with the configured triggers
Happy2Play 9213 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Doesn't real time monitoring already accomplish picking up new media without a library scan?
Tranquil 93 Posted July 24, 2015 Author Posted July 24, 2015 Doesn't real time monitoring already accomplish picking up new media without a library scan?The monitor just starts a complete library scan everytime you add or modify a folder instead of just processing the updated or newly added media. send with tapatalk from my mobile
Happy2Play 9213 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 I don't get a library scan every time I add new media. I know because upcoming gets double images when I add new episodes and doesn't clear up until a library scan.

Happy2Play 9213 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 Ok according to my logs when I add new episodes and it is discovered by librarymonitor a full library scan is not initiated. I will have to check again when I add a new movie.
gardar 16 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 +1 This feature is definately a must for big libraries!
Happy2Play 9213 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) Ok some more testing and if you add Episodes to a series there is no library scan, but adding movies triggers a library scan. So is this a bug or by design? Edited July 24, 2015 by Happy2Play
ebr 15477 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 I believe it was something we found to be a necessity due to all of the discovery processes involved. It can probably be improved but I remember it being quite sticky. 1
