[vbat99]

So far, everything is working good again.

When I push "Search" why do you think MC takes so long to link into my NAS? Once it finds it, we're good. It's scan really quick, but it seems to take like 20 mins to begin. I still....blame you, MyCloud.

Also, why I have say, 100 folders, why would MC say scanning 1 of 102? And, after the scan, I get 99 of the 100 expected. Weird? Not sure what the heck that missing one is.....hmm..

Shouldn't take 20 minutes to start, unless you have movies in the root of your movies folder. Then, depending on how many movies are in the root, it may take some time.

Recently I bit the bullet, and moved all movies not in sub folders out to a Temp folder.
Then I created a second temp folder, and transferred about a dozen movies into the second temp folder.
Set MC to only have the second temp folder the Root Movie folder.
Once refreshed, the dozen movies were listed. Clicked one movie, Ctrl-A, right-click, Rename selected movie(s) -> Movie and folder
Then went into the second temp folder, Cut and Pasted into my main movie folder.
Repeat and rinse... till all movies are in sub folder.

MC, on my collection now starts in minutes on a Refresh or Search.

As for more folders than you actually have, MC counts the root folder, and any sub-sub folders it finds as the total folders to scan.
Why 99 of 100? Possibly a filter is enabled, causing one movie not to be listed.
Disable all Movie Filters except for General filter, and do another refresh.

That should see you right.
