Hmm sounds like a missing database index or something... anything in the logfiles? Based on my own experience I would have thought that it would take 40-45 min for a complete rescan. Are you game on trying a clear and full rescan?! -- slate Main: Receiver (Audiocom) - Beresford Caiman+

You should be able to just abort the scan again, set new logging settings and start over. Keep in mind that in 7.6 (with SQLite) the server and library are completely usable during a full clear rescan, unlike in past. -- JJZolx
