scan718 0 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 also it has been scanning the library for days now, it stays around 68% completed I don't know if this is related but looking at the log i see a lot of "Error parsing xml file" I would like to post the log but the sticky says not to paste the whole thing how much to upload? Thanks in advance, i would like to get this sorted because my PC is unusable during scans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37233 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 try going into the metadata section and disabling features you don't care about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scan718 0 Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Thanks i will try, i also notice that when scanning my library ffmpeg does not kick in till about 70% of the library scan,and the scan either stops there or crawls very slowly. i thought ffmpeg was just for transcoding? I only have 1 image fetcher and 1 metadata downloader, i don't see anything that should cause it. Edited November 7, 2015 by scan718 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernst 29 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 If you disable chapter images, it won't need ffmpeg and will probably do the scan a lot quicker (it did for me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have 1 image fetcher and 1 metadata downloader, i don't see anything that should cause it. scan718, I have had this happen with updates to MB Server as well. Recent updates triggered a very long re-scan effort of my existing library (3+ days). For some reason it treats some items in the library as if they are new items, even though they are not, and runs ffmpeg and ffprobe against them for file information and if you have it turned on chapter image creation. This can be a very long and cpu intensive process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scan718 0 Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 Thanks for all the input, after this last update it seems to be ok now, taking about 25 minutes to do a scan now, I set it to scan after midnight. What does chapter image actually do? is it to make the roku images while fast forward & rewind? Cant live without that now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
