pir8radio 1312 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I have a dumb question... I'm going to migrate my music to a different array (drive), What will Emby do in the background? I'm concerned with the images stored in the MB images/cache folders. Will it scan the new location and use the old images in these folders? If not will it delete the old and grab new? I only ask because of my library size, the cache, images, and other MB info consumes 30.3 gigs by itself, i don't want an additional 30 gigs to get sucked up..
ebr 16185 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 If the location changes (meaning the path reference) then it will be a new item to us and anything not stored with the actual media will get re-created. If you use drive pooling or network shares such that you can physically move it but have the path reference be the same then it will all hook back up. User data should be fine as long as the items are identified with mbz.
pir8radio 1312 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Posted April 1, 2015 @@ebr ok so assuming the path changes and new items are created, what happens to the old images and cache?
