I just gave it another try without scanning. If one does not want the
scan to happen, the simple way is to SSH to the touch, go to
/etc/squeezecenter/prefs/, edit the server.prefs file, change the
autorescan to 0; earlier I changed the precacheArtwork to 0, but that
did not save the server from crashing either. Be sure to type "sync"
after you edit this file with vi.
Another thinking that might interest frustrated users like myself is to
totally disable artwork. I noticed that in the
/usr/squeezeserver/slimserver.pl file there is a line setting
$ENV{AUDIO_SCAN_NO_ARTWORK} = 1;
This ensures that scanner does not extract artwork when doing audio
scanning.
I wonder we can grep $ENV{AUDIO_SCAN_NO_ARTWORK} and set them to be all
0 to disable artwork scan within music files.
