Solved: Update library hangs unpredictably while scanning SMB share on a Fritzbox router
#46
the library is about 5k albums and I certainly didn't expect the scan to complete in minutes
it took many hours as expected, but that's fine
I never interrupted it, but Moode did behave in a way I found a bit confusing
The busy wheel always kept on spinning, even when the hard drive was not being scanned (the led on the enclosure wasn't blinking and I'm positive the disk was idle), and there was no other perceivable activity for a long time (i.e. no matter how many times I hit the refresh icon no new albums were displayed in Moode's library screen).
So in spite of the busy wheel, Moode seemed not to be doing.
After some time of that I gave the "update folder" command, which Moode accepted (as opposed to when it's actually already scanning and the "scan in progress" error pops up). Upon giving the command, the HD would be reactivated and after some time more albums would be displayed in the library.
So my conclusion is that for some reason the scan stopped on its own before completing and had to be manually restarted a number of times.
It's no real trouble for the user, I just figured it's something new users may want to know before they go crazy on some wild goose chase
Thanks again for the support
