Quoting Healy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Mine will peg out at 99% for 10-15 mins each time it does a rescan of the itunes library. Even if I've just quit the iTunes and made no changes (IE: updates the time stamp of the xml file). It jumps up to 99% and scans through the whole library again.
Meanwhile while that is happening, more than half the time, the music
will
cut out & the squeezebox will state "Can't find slimserver". Sometimes
it will come back on and play for 1-2 seconds and they go dead for
another
2 minutes. After the CPU goes back down to normal levels, the music
comes
back on. This happens wired or wireless. I used to have it check for
iTunes
changes every hour, now I have it set to weeks to try and avoid that.
This happened once in a while in the 5.x series but seem to happen now every time it detects an iTunes change. It's getting to the point when I can't even rely on the squeezebox for a party anymore. Very disappointing.
Is this the norm for users with huge libraries of music from now on?
not at all. I have not seen anything like this with my system. Have you tried
watching the logs, using d_itunes and/or d_info? you could set your itunes
scan interval to something very high, and use rescan or the rescan plugin to
refresh the data every so often.
I'm currently doing the scan interval change to see if that fixes matters. The
rescan will catch changes to itunes? I use iTunes exclusively.
I've tried all three logs that you mention, so far I have not seen a common
thread to focus on.
