Are thumbnails really even necessary for images? I would think most
people are going to be a) usually viewing images in some sort of
slide-show mode, and b) very seldom browsing through the image
library.

If you guys want to do some experimenting, you can comment out the
various thumbnail options that are created for every image/video. This
is probably the source of most of the slowdown. I think I mentioned
this before, but right now each thumbnail is generated from the
full-res source. Music
How is the picture and video scanning in LMS for everyone else ?
Video scanning seems to be very slow in my setup and picture scanning
is reasonably slow also, at least compared to music scanning.
Does everyone else see the same thing ?
Do you think the current scanning performance is

Yeah, scanning performance has a lot of room for improvement. Images are
slow because the current way thumbnails are being generated is not the
fastest (always resizing from the original instead of the previous
thumbnail). Same issue with video, although the original is usually
