Hello all,

My trusty Acer Aspire H340 would not turn on following a power outage,
so I ended up buying a DS918+ last week. I've been running LMS since
2010 when I bought my first SqueezeBox Boom. Lately I had been running
it on Ubuntu Server 16.04 on a separate machine, with the files stored
on the H340 (which was also running 16.04). The number of music files
reported was in the neighbourhood of 50,000 (not piracy; I own a lot of
albums and get dozens of albums for review from record labels every
week. :))

Since the DS918+ had an LMS package and seemed powerful enough to handle
what I need it to do, I turned off the other machine that was running
LMS before (an old but relatively powerful Dell). LMS seemed to be
running fine (albeit VERY slow at scanning-damn!) until I noticed that
only 30,000 songs or so were reported after the scan. I checked that all
the files had been copied from my backup (yes). I tried just a rescan,
no luck. Clear and rebuild library: Same results. I then fired up the
Dell and gave that LMS installation the Synology as the media source.
Once the scan completed, it (running on Ubuntu Server 16.04) reported
the correct 50,000 or so songs. So, obviously, the problem seems to be
only with LMS on the Synology.

I've checked the logs (from the interface) and can't see the scan logs
complaining about anything. I thought maybe foreign characters (lots of
songs in languages other than English), but none of that is reported. So
I'm at a bit of a loss and I'm wondering if anyone here has run into a
similar problem and/or could suggest something to look at or some
setting that I may have overlooked.

The DS918+ has the stock 4Gb of RAM and resource usage (CPU and RAM) is
still pretty low even while scanning, so I don't think that's an issue.
It currently has two 4 Tb drives set up with RAID 1, with plenty of
space to spare.

Thanks!
Michel
