Jellyfin Server/Web release: 12.0 RC4

Is this the first scan after upgrading to RC4? It could take a while depending on what cleanup and new tasks need to be done. Subsequent scans should be faster.

Just tested RC4 and here are my impressions. For starters the performance is not there when streaming movies or life tv.
I keep downgrading to 10.10.7 backup. This is snappy. Second, and this is my big beef - why transcode streams with HE AAC?

When you say the performance isn't there and that 10.10.7 is "snappy" what do you mean exactly? Is there a [longer] delay during some specific action or sequence, or lag during playback or something? I'm just curious so that I can try and do the same comparison between versions.

No this is for scans I do after the main 1st scan also applies to people scans aswell. Running on windows 11

Oh I see. There must be something in your library which doesn't migrate correctly to the new database architecture and gets bogged down during updates/scans. For me on 10.11.11 clicking 'Scan All Libraries' takes under a minute, basically the same as 10.10.7. Almost everything is on SSDs for me though, so that might be part of the reason.

But are arbitrary background update speeds a good reason to hold your server back to soon deprecated versions?

Start a thread in troubleshooting and provide your JF12 logs via pastebin.

Sometimes yes!  Imagine getting a new movie and not being able to view it for 6 hours, due to Jellyfin taking so long to pick it up.
