Paul Barrett Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Question: I have a single folder in a catalog that has auto rescan turned ON, and the auto rescan setting is IMMEDIATE. This is the only folder in THIS catalog that has auto rescan turned ON. Under those conditions how long should I expect it to take before the items are visible in the catalog. With a setting of 'immediate' my expectation is that it should happen quickly, Currently I am seeing it take >10 minutes I have another, bigger, catalog which has auto rescan turned on from the root because changes can take place anywhere in the tree. Would that affect the other catalog? Does that need to finish a cycle before this one can rescan? - Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Barrett Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Update: It's now 40 minutes since I placed the images in the auto rescan folder and nothing has appeared yet. I have just forced a manual rescan and the files appeared immediately. Any suggestion on how I can fix this please? - Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uwe Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Hello Paul, the setting immediately doesn't work for folders on a NAS. You have to use "Rescan folders every"... The option "immediately" is based on an event generation of the Windows system - the NAS is Linux. Regards, Uwe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Paul, Just wanted to ask, if auto-rescan works as expected with these new settings? Regards, Daria Yep, it does. And if I had read the little help-on-hover message alongside the option I would have known. Is there an emoticon for 'Hangs his head in shame?' This comes close.
