I'll check your files tonight. I still don't know why the scanning is so slow on your PC (I can scan a source with 5'000 movies and another with over 13'000 episodes in 5-10min).

Based on the time you said yours takes, then my notebook is even slow... but not as slow as the one for the desktop. I did an update library on my notebook starting around 12:52 and by 3:27 it was completed, at least that's better than a couple days that the version on my desktop takes. Another thing that's different is my notebook is connected via a LAN cable with possible transfer speeds of up to 100 Mbps (using a Intel Core i7 Q740 @ 1.73 GHz, with 6 GB RAM) and my Desktop is connected to a LAN cable with possible transfer speeds up to 1 Gbps (using a Intel Core i7 2630QM @ 2.00 GHz, with 6 GB RAM). I'd assume the desktop would be faster.

I rip the DVD's as 1 to 1 copies, to my NAS device. Doing this creates 2 folders. 1.) Audio - which is empty & 2.) Video - which contains the VOB, IFO & BUP files. I copy the contents of the Video folder to my streaming file path (which is also a file path in the source portion of Ember) in a folder named the movie title (year) [ex. Homefront (2013) naming scheme - creating a file path of Z:\Active Files\DVD Movies\Homefront (2013)]. The file path is: Z:\Active Files\DVD Movies for both my desktop and notebook. The notebook version does take longer to update the library than the 5-10 min yours does, but it's usually done within a few hours at most. The desktop version took 1 1/2 to 2 days to add the same 4 movies (3 movies & 1 TV series disc) from the same file location.

Here's a link to the screenshots showing the settings for:

I did a test with 3 DVD's that I recently added, however I made a copy of the contents of the Video folder from the DVD (# 2 above) to My Documents folder (of my desktop) in a parent folder named "Ember Test". I added the "Ember Test" folder as a source in Ember (file path: C:\Users\John Thorpe\Documents\Ember Test) and chose "Update Ember Test Only" under the "Update Library" drop down, and it added the 3 new DVD's withing 5 to 7 minutes ... course the Ember Test folder only had the 3 new DVD's in there and not my whole library, so I don't know if that is why it finished so quickly, I don't know if there is a setting in Ember that is causing the update library from a network drive device to be slow vs. the drive in my desktop to be slower... Here's a link to the log using the drive in my desktop: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lJtjAK...AVOqc3-wdD

I don't think it's the NAS drive or any cables as the update time for my notebook, while it's not in the 5 to 10 minute range, is a lot faster than updating the desktop version to the same device and file paths.
