Thanks Paul. Hadn't noticed that, yeah really odd. LMS 7.9 finds 4578

I carried out a 'Clear and rescan' in LMS 8.1 within Docker on my
Synology DS218+ last night. I have around 25,000 tracks and some 600
playlists. A scan with the "regular" LMS 7.9 installed using Synology
Package Centre takes just over an hour, but the Docker rescan took over
3 hours!

Latest (and possibly final) set of screen shots. This time the scenario
was to carry out a clear all and rescan in both instances, with 84 large
and default playlists filtered out from iTunes import, and Full Text
search plugin re-enabled to build the full text index as part of the
scan.
I'm running LMS 7.9.1-168 on a Synology DS218+, previously installed

to upgrade it and break LMS. As a future contingency, I've been

I'm thinking of buying a Raspberry Pi to setup in combination with a USB
hard drive as a portable LMS. In situations where I won't have Wi-fi
available, does the Last.fm plugin queue up Scrobbles to send out when
Wi-fi is next available, or will it simply fail to Scrobble any tracks

I set the 'What Was That Tune?' log to debug and played a few tracks

I saw a Dynamic Playlists plugin update waiting in LMS last night. Very
pleased to see it's the fix to list them alphabetically - many thanks!
