I disagree there. I had the feeling that scan is slower in LMS than in SBS 7.6 Michael said this may be due to the fact that it scans for videos and pictures too (I have no clue of videos when I scan with LMS though) So even if you select carefully your folders, there is a performance problem if you scan for things you don't care about, even if no file of this kind is present. And who knows if some music file will not be considered as a video file because of some strange bug ? erland;641654 Wrote: > > Extra options might sound good, but they are really only needed if the > system doesn't work, and they do make the system more complex to setup > for users who don't understand all configuration options.

It seems to me that Logitech team doesn't have resources to achieve something like "tested it enough" That's why I would personaly settle a behavior which would allow me to narrow various types of scan at will, and allow users who do not care about certain types of files to globally disable them, instead of having almost every customer angry because of bugs unrelated to their use. I wouldn't call 3 flags to enable or disable in scanning prefs something "complex" -- nicolas75 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nicolas75's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15823 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86628 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
