Scanning - IceQB - 2024-01-06

After update to 10.8.12 media scanning takes up to 12-14hrs
JF is un-useable during this time

four tips

1. disable extraction of anything from videos in each library settings (chapter thumbs/screen grabs); if enabled
2. disable extract subtitles plugin; if enabled
3. run jellyfin's database/config on a fast SSD or NVME; if not already done
4. provide a coherent log for an actual assessment; use any public paste site and provide the link back here

Replicate the problem and just post whatever the contents are of your log are to pastebin or some other paste bin like site.


RE: Scanning - IceQB - 2024-01-08

I've disabled & enabled all above again, restarting after each change.
Scanning down from 12+hrs to 39mins.

But TV Shows now showing as single episodes & not sorted as series anymore.

What library type is your content in? That would only happen when you put a show in a movie library.

Still need to see your jellyfin log. Post to pastebin then link back here.
