If that takes a lot of time, it would be great if you enabled "info" level logging of "plugin.customscan" and did a restart and posted the log. There might be some SQL that isn't optimized for large libraries, the log should tell you how long each part of the refresh takes.

Mixed Tag is only needed if you want to mix the custom tag with standard SBS information within the same menu. indifference_engine;512508 Wrote: > > Is there step-by-step instructions on setting MultiLibrary up with > CustomTags? > No I don't think there are any step-by-step guide, the guides that exists are those linked from the Multi Library wiki page: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Multi_Library_plugin indifference_engine;512508 Wrote: > > Also, in MultiLibrary I saw the option for the tag value but not for > the Tag name. > I think the "Tag name" parameter only is shown if there are any tags in the database, so after you scan with Custom Tag scanning module it should appear. Do the Custom Tag scanning before you create the library. indifference_engine;512508 Wrote: > > I also need to use the like operator rather than the equals operator as > some tracks could be owned by more than one person.

Generally speking LIKE is slower than = in SQL queries so due to this there might be a performance hit. However, the query should still be fairly simple so I suspect it will work. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74549 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
