Sorry about that. The firmware update notices for the device I was
referring to are for 7.8.0, not 7.9.0.
Anyway, so far, so good with 7.9.0 LMS on the computer. I really like
the latest version, so it is highly unlikely I would WANT to go back to
7.5.5. And at this point it is probably pretty un
Anyway, for now I am having fun with it.
Perfect!
The Squeezebox device itself is now continually prompting me to upgrade
the firmware to 7.9.0.
There is no 7.9.0 firmware. What kind of player are you using? There's a
7.8 firmware for the Touch, but Radio still is on some 7.7.x. The older

I removed the suspect image file from the folder. I'm sending that image

Next I just started up another scan using 7.9.0 with all the debugging

If I were you I would verify LMS works ok by copying a few albums in a
directory and launching a full scan on that small library.

Michael- I did one more scan in LMS 7.9.0 with the Database Memory
Config value to "Maximum". So I am sending another scanner.log to you. I
tagged the name of this one with 'max' to keep them straight.
Scanning stopped at 'Building full text index' again.

Well as luck would have it (or unluck - it's a long story), I had some
extra time this morning so I did another clean install of 7.9.0 and

these options in 7.5.5, why would it do that?

My music library is relatively large, although I am sure there must be
others like me that have large collections. Right now, I have about
370-380GB stored in a music folder on the iMAC that gets scanned by LMS.
There are almost 4000 albums and around 35-40K tracks in the folder. I
generally add 3
You make a zip file of the whole log , it's a text file . The link in
the web UI tells you where it sits .
Or if you had 7.9 there is a link to grab a zip file directly .

Is it always a good idea to update firmware?
If you were a Rhapsody/Napster user, then the update would be crucial.
Otherwise I don't remember the changes. But I'd certainly make sure you
run the same LMS version on all servers, then run the update.

I have one follow-up question:
Since I updated LMS on the laptop to 7.8.1, the Squeezebox device screen
regularly pops up saying an update to the firmware is now available.
Should I go ahead and update the firmware? Although LMS software on the
