x88dually 9 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Luke says i have to be on the latest and greatest version. Virgin install of Win7, with all updates and patches, and 1 program, k-lite codec pack. Virgin install of v4.1.1.0, created movie library and did scan, (took 27 hrs ) rebooted emby. Then created TV show library, doing scan, BUT ( 9 drives and 35 TB ), stuck on scanning at 89.9 % for 24 hrs, home screen, my media stuff screen stuck at same point for 18 hrs. Is this typical or is it hung ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37068 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Hi, it is probably just taking a long time. I would just give it time and allow it to finish. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBers 6771 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Latest and greatest doesn't include Windows 7 though Also, you don't need any codec packs with Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x88dually 9 Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 Win 10's telemetry, logs every key stroke and mouse click, then phones it home. And there will be networking issues with Win 7 and 8.1. Soo, to me Win7 is still better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soo, to me Win7 is still better Telemetry can be disabled, but aside from that, Windows 10 is inordinately better than Windows 7. I'll never install Windows 7 ever again.

CBers 6771 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Windows 8.x was a poor OS compared to 7, but 10 is better than both of them. Yes, Microsoft take information but as per the above, this can be blocked. I never wanted to move from 7 to 10, but now having used 10 for almost 4 years, I never want to go back.

Happy2Play 8282 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Do you have Thumbnail Images enabled on your libraries? On a initial scan that will lets say triple the import time. As I know image extraction took almost 4 days alone when bif files were added. So to me you are on track for the amount of data Emby is processing. But a server log would confirm this.

x88dually 9 Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) what would happen to initial library scan if i copied an additional 130G in 6 tv shows while at scanning 90.4 % ???? Will i mess things up ? Edited May 22, 2019 by x88dually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will i mess things up ? I believe they would be queued after the current scan. No either realtime monitoring will pick them up or be added in the next scan.

Happy2Play 8282 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 rescan after initial is done ? All depends on your setup and whether real time monitoring is enabled and supported by your OS, but yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikaJ 56 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Well you could just use the KMS tool to authenticate your W10 OS or better yet use a tool called HWID which has many flavors for authenticating your OS. I believe one is good for 39 years or so. Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
