That's a workaround, not a fix. I'm not opposed to it, but won't waste my time implementing it when it doesn't actually address the problem.

The problem is trivial to fix: Instead of storing the hash just for the directory, we store a hash per item. Thus, not only do we know when a directory may need rescanning, but we also know which items in that directory need rescanning. Ofcourse, there's no point implementing this fix at this point - I shall simply ensure that this is part of the new filescanners.

Gotcha... didn't know you guys created hashes for the directories, which is brilliant. Going to steal that idea. lol

Sounds great. Waiting for the new release then. This change would make a huge difference for me.

I deleted yesterday my movie source to get the lib updated. For 1000 movies its not that hard but for an TV Show lib with 8k episodes xbmc need ~ 5h to rescan al.

Why did you need to rescan your shows - wasn't just the movies broken?

Removing the movie source should have cleared just them out.

I have 430 movies in movie named folders. Have used EMM to organise the collection so that each movie folder contains a NFO, a Cover/Poster .jpg, a Fanart.jpg and extrathumbs folder with 2 thumbs in each. All looks pretty and nice and neat. When I add that source to XBMC, will it import that data and not do its internal scrape? I was under the impression that it would. If it is kind of broken with the current development changes, is there a workaround?
