Hi,
So I am generally adding new albums to Kodi on a daily basis and for most times the library update works as it should i.e. it ignores existing albums and scrapes the new ones or picks up any changed. With this general processing it only takes a couple of mins to add the new music to the library. But there seems to be a scenario where library update initiates a info lookup itself on the entire library and seems to be around say once a month. This causes the update to effectively take at least a day or more on a library of 85k+ songs 5,300+ albums. If it's not doing a info lookup then something additional is going on as it seems to check every library entry being scanned. Is this doing a monthly check of hashes or something?
I've got 'Prefer online info' and 'fetch additional info' but set to 'off' as well.
Is there a reason this seems to happen?, couldn't see anything to config to stop it if so?.
Would just like to know if it's intended and if there is a time frame so I can better manage it's execution.
I don't have logs as it only happens now and then and it just happened to initiate yesterday when adding latest purchases.
Mike.
