Yeah definitely a lot going on there. I was ill equipped to analyzy the totality of it lol.

Thanks for the info re: naming convention. I will add that to my list and get something looked at and fixed.
At one point I did try to be consistent, but I got overwhelmed and dropped the ball, I get that.

The /mnt convention is simply a hold over from my early days of linux in the 90's. All physical disks were mounted there. All of those are local disks. Several connected via a pcie x4 controller and some on the controller on the motherboard, including the root drive. They are a mix of drives. Some are rather old like 5T drives, some are rather new ssd 17T drives so there is definitely differences in write speed, tho everything is SATA 3 6G.

The lag I was having was not in the viewing, it was strictly in the opening of the app. The tiles would hang or slowly fill in on the home screen. I'll admit at that time I had a rather slow drive as root (wasn't aware how slow until I actually benchmarked with dd, it was reading at only like 75m/s as I was trying to find the problem) Between that being replaced and any updates the wonderful devs have done that problem has largly resolved itself.

It is weird, i dunno if it showed up in that log, but I've occasionally seen it say a directory isn't there when it is...

Something else weird. I have 8 data and 1 root drive. So when I make libraries I usually make a directory on all 8 drives (some I haven't full fleshed yet) but I have at least one library that. when looked at in the libraries page, the library claims 9 directories, yet only 8 are defined if you look inside.

I have just recently turned on the option to keep images and metadata with the media. I wasn't sure if that would be retroactive for the existing media, but I ran a scan and hoped at least lol

As far as metada provider, I think I usually leave the defaults. Right now I looked at the TV LIbrary has theTVDB and the open movie database. A Random movie library has themoviedb and open movie database. Looks like they have nfo checked as well, but as a rule I do not put any nfo's in the dir.

I went to tiny media manager, looks interesting, I will look into it as well.

Direct to theguymadmax, Hello sir I saw your message. Episodes are ok to have spaces, but movies are not?
And I did see the bit about the multiple eps...that's why they work funny lol

I havent had occasion yet to see if the sql worked, as I don't specifically remember the ones I saw before so I'll just have faith that it worked

Would these naming convention issues be the source of some of the crazy errors in the log? I had half considered, just to get things clean, a wipe and fresh install, but then I'd lose all watched data etc. Blargh

Ooh one more update. I was just looking and I have one library that claims 9 dirs, and one that claims 10. Again nothing should claim more than 8

*quick-edit* just changing some verbage and spelling errors
