I have to chime in too that this seemingly solved my problems too. My problem was that I would clear and rescan my 22,xxx song library and when it was complete I could play all of the songs. I then would select an Artist and play all their songs (in this case it was 170 songs). After playing a

Many thanks to all those who helped me out on this. I think I have it fixed, that is, all 8800~ songs can be played now. On McAfee Security Center, I set the Specify Types of files to scan on real time scanning, to program files and documents only. This seemed to work. I would have preferred to

Where do I find these entries for each song? The only place I can see on the debugging page is the one link to a logfile near the top of the screen? Start the scanner manually as described a little up the thread. You can then define where exactly you want the log to be. It can be viewed and

Hi Mherger, Once again, thanks for your persistent help I hope you don't get too frustrated with my lack of skills here, but I simply don't follow. I'm not sure where this log should appear as I don't get a prompt or see any field which suggests a location. Although, I suspect it won't help.

One reason it would find music in another folder would be if you have playlists which refer to that other music. In your server settings - basic page, you have places to specify locations for both music library and playlists. Try clearing the playlists entry and just specifying a music library

I'm at work at the moment, but will take this folder out when I get home. That's a good idea. One more thing you could/should do: disable plugins which could touch the scan process: iTunes, MoodLogic, MusicIP and third party plugins like LazySearch etc. Reduce your system to the bare naked

Thanks guys. I have to admit I wasn't aware of this. What is dissapointing is the response I got from sd support. It took me over two weeks to get a response stating they didn't support it. In fact, their support was pretty poor. Here is a summary: 1st response from sd: fill in the directory
