Server 3.1: Slow Media Library Scan

[Dibbes 514]

Ever since the upgrade to Sever version 3.1, the Media Library scan takes up to 7 hours where in 3.0.8500 this was around 1hr 25min. 

 

Besides the server upgrade, nothing else has changed in the setup.

Is that just the initial scan after update or all library scans?

[Dibbes 514]

All scans. When I first noticed I thought it was the initial scan, that's why I didn't report it until some days after release.

 

It's with 3.1.1 as well, by the way.

Hi @@Dibbes, please provide the Emby server log from a library scan. You can learn how to do that here:

Thanks !

I'm first going to re-install 3.0.8500 and see if it happens then too. I don't want you ending up wasting your time if it turns out to be my own network...

 

Reason I'm saying this is that I seem to be the only one with this issue...

I really would not do that. There is really no explanation for why the previous server could possibly be scanning the library faster.

[Dibbes 514]

I don't know what the reason was, but a clean install on Windows Server 2016 with Emby Sever 3.1.1 resolved the issue. The average scanning time is around 1hr 25min now, what I expected...

Thanks for the report.
