I apologize if I've missed something earlier that explained why this is taking so long...
Just as a benchmark, on a laptop with a 1.7 Ghz processor and processor use set to "normal" in MusicIP, I have scanned nearly 2,000 tracks in under 12 hours. Current rate is ~ 6 tracks/minute (approx 5 Gb FLAC files/hr). While websurfing. I do have the tracks on my internal hard drive, and my web connection is good (but wireless). My music is not all pop, but is all commercial albums. Relatively few are super obscure, but many are not too mainstream. I did have a period at the beginning of the alphabet (going in alphabetical order by artist) where it took several hours to go only a few tracks. It then sped up quickly to 5-6 tracks/min. If yours isn't, maybe something else is going on? Is your processor getting other heavy use, antivirus actively scanning everything that's accessed by your computer (you can turn that off whithout deactivating all your antivirus protection, by the way), or your internet connection very slow? Maybe try scanning a few albums singly, ones that aren't obscure, and see if they go fast? Anyway, what you describe seems odd given my experience, but I have no better suggestions. -- lork ------------------------------------------------------------------------ lork's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17438 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48270 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
