I updated to 7.6 SVN rev 32243, to see if scanning was any more reliable yet.
NB. I am currently trying to use SQLite; although the following was my experience with either SQL engine last time I tried. I ran the server up, and it tried to auto-rescan my library before I had chance to tweak any settings (even though Settings > Advanced > Performance > Automatically detect changes = Disabled). Settings > Informaiton > Music Scan Details reported that it had discovered new files, and started scanning new files. It also reported that it had finished scanning, but the info page was still updating to show progress. Eventually Perl crashed: perl.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x02184364" referenced memory at "0x12bf1058". The memory could not be "read". Someone a while back suggested that perhaps the new scanner doesn't like windows shortcuts. My root music folder contains a few shortcut links to folders that contain my music (not recursive). So I restarted, and SBS started to auto-rescan again. I changed my music folder path to a sub-section of my library (avoid shortcut/links), which I think caused the auto-rescan to stop and a new rescan to start. The new scan seemed to start, but then it stopped reporting progress. On the Basic Settings tab, the Rescan Music Library option was no longer disabled. I forced a "Clear Library and Rescan Everything", and the same thing happens. Information > Music Scan Details reports it is scanning, and also that it has finished, but progress still seems to continue to get updated. The WebUI is still reporting the old music library content. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
