[QUESTION] How to setup rescan at app launch #631

Open mo-han opened 2 years ago

I remember there was an option (not sure) to do such a thing, but cannot find it.

v6.0.62

Press on the rescan button and the option is under there.

Press on the rescan button and the option is under there.

which "rescan button"? the "rescan all files"? or those beside each indexed SMB shared folder? I tried long pressing on those buttons but nothing popped out.

The option is only available in the TV mode interface. On mobile you can switch into it, turn on the rescan option and switch back to the mobile interface.

that's tricky, but thanks to your help now i set it up already.

then i realize it's a bit different between "rescan" and "scan all files", and they show different messages in notification panel. when a "rescan" task is running, it says "indexing media files" with a remote path such as "smb://...", not like "scan files" task telling a progress of "there are in total some number of files remaing...". does "rescan" list (index) remote files first, then only those changed are scanned into media lib, so it can scan the whole remote path much faster?
