I noticed that even after a 'good' scan, every time I remounted the
USB-HD, it always found 1670 new files. This was strangely close to the
number of albums (1614).
I then remembered that when EAC rips each disc it creates an m3u

3k = 30,000,000 is a lot of music :) Just kidding but 30k is also

Ricard,
I don't believe that Touch loses the password, there is some other
connection
John, thanks for such a comprehensive reply.
I'll drve the My Apps and last.fm scrobbling elsewhere as they are
minor compared to unlistenable music!

There are no hard and fast rules. Its not a number in the software that
after its reached stuff doesn't work. There seems to be a gradual
degradation in performance (initial scan time, remount scan time, GUI
responsiveness etc) as the database gets larger. Exactly where things

Got my SB Touch today (my thanks Logitech) and very nice it looks too.
At the moment, I believe it's scanning the attached USB drive (which
will be used as it's music source). I've got roughly 1100 CDs cut onto
the HD and was wondering how I check progress of the scan whilst it's
running?
Any
Any thoughts?

Lastly, if I switch to another music source (e.g. my PC), then go back
to the USB HDD, will I need to re-scan it?
No.
Have fun!

go to settings/advanced/squeezebox server
which should give you a progress report.
I think it will be slower if you are playing music whilst it scans but
see my post as I think I crashed mine byinstalling an applet (which
always reboots Squeezeplay devices like teh touch) mid-scan.
Mine too seemed to stop the first time it was doing the scan. Powered
down and restarted and all tracks, album art etc scanned successfully.
You should see the tracks scanned going up and a %

I used the factory reset option, restarted it, then setup to scan my USB
HDD. Worked a treat. Scanned the whole lot in 25 mins, then played
everything with zero issues.
Big thumbs up from me.
