Enable logging on Custom Scan in "SqueezeCenter Settings/Logging" and perform a scanning and post the log.
In the log you should be able to see what happens in Custom Scan and which steps that takes long time. As you describe what you have done it sounds like you have done everything correctly. The LastFM scanning module takes some time to scan the whole library, approximately a few seconds per artist in your library. During this time SqueezeCenter will be very unresponsive. After you have done the scanning once it should be fast, because it will then only scan new artists not retrieved the first time. There is no easy way to avoid this unresponsiveness due to licensing restrictions on LastFM's side, the license only allows one request per second. The Amazon scanning module has the same issues. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51894 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
