I'm going to try updating the Watchdog module to the current version to see if that helps. In the meantime, I found that if you change the advanced setting for network share polling internal from 4 seconds to 30 seconds (or more) that the CPU usage goes down significantly.

Do you think you can get it to work with LibreELEC 9.2.3 (Leia)? The issue is that it constantly triggers a library update, as well as artwork beef is also constantly scanning.

Sorry it took me so long to upload the log file. This is in regards to the following post: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid2973381

Here is my log file. I could not get it to save on many of the pastebin sites because I believe it is too large.

(2020-10-04, 04:24)pkscout Wrote: [ -> ]Unfortunately I don't think I've got any help to offer. The log shows a large series of delete events being detected for /storage/movies (honestly, it looks like watchdog thinks that entire directory has been deleted) followed by an equally large series of create events for that same directory (/storage/movies), and that's what's triggering the library updates. If this is an external drive or a mounted network drive, the only thing I can figure is that the OS is having trouble keeping it mounted, so it looks to watchdog like it disappears and reappears. You might need to check on some forums that can provide specific help for that OS.

I'm running Kodi on an Nvidia Shield, and my library resides on my Linux PC which is shared with the Shield via SMB. Whenever a new file gets added to my library, nothing is detected by Kodi even though this plugin is installled. I had to strip my kodi.log in the middle to be able to upload it because my library is too large. Any help is much appreciated.
