One thing to watch out for when using cron is the file ownership of the
files the process creates.

Hi there,
just for the record: the scan finished eventually. Afterwards the
"Empty" music folder issue resolved itself without further intervention:
the entire structure of subfolders simply showed up in the Web-UI.
However, in the meantime I had added ~200 releases to the collection.

Do you listen through your collection from the first to the last song? I
don't. Currently my favorites list consists of merely ~1200 songs.
No one would even want to listen to some of those 10 years of music,
because much of

In which case do you really need such a large library?
The scan time for ~ 1 million tracks is going to be a lot of hours no
matter what you do.

In post 1 you said circa 1 million tracks. I thought at the time I read
it thats Spotify territory or getting on for and equals about 10 years

Many thanks for this information. I started writing a Python script to
tidy up the tags: Simple job iwht FLAC and OGG. Getting ID3 for MP3
right is somewhat more challenging.
You know there are tools to do this? :-)
I had some issues with NFS in the past where scanning became painfully
slow. H
Is that just an issue on first ever scan?
I thought that the scan tries to generate a new database and then
switches to it on completion ... so that searches that are run while the
scan is in progress will still see results from the live database.
If correct then you should not need an extra LMS.

Designed? I doubt it. Will it work? I'd say yes. I haven't seen an
installation big as yours, but we know there are installations of 600k+
tracks out there. Make sure you have plenty of RAM and a fast disk
system for the data

Hi there,

but thoroughly structured media collection of FLAC, MP3 & OGG tracks on
a Linux box.
