I have the same gripe and am exploring a number of options to get around this (if it is at all possible). I see two possibilities (both on the presumption that appending rather than rewriting the MiP cache will stop SC having to do a full blown rescan): - append the cache file using MiP GUI - append the cache file using Genpuid
Genpuid is the more attractive option because it doesn't require user intervention and can be automated eg run overnight. If I find a solution I'll post it here. -- egd Internet forums: conclusive proof depth of gene pool is indeed variable, monkeys can be taught to cut code, and world peace is utterly unrealistic... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ egd's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3425 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48270 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
