Add rescan files MM4 vs MM5

Post by Thamesvalley »

Hi,

After installing MM5, I've tested the option 'Add rescan files'.
It appeared that this is no more the same than MM4.

How can we select sub-directory nodes with MM5 ?
I have a huge database and this is a pity to rescan the whole data each time I need.
Thank you very much for your help.

You have to add each location through the Add Location option, instead of selecting them from a tree.

Hi Lowlander,

Thank you for your help.
I have hundreds of directories to add one by one.
What a pity.
I think it was not a good idea to remove this option.

Hi,
Option is still there if you click on Add location -> Local Storage... You get same tree as in MM4.
Best regards,

I've already tried this but I suppose I have to have a bug because nothing happened.
I've clicked "Add location", it appears on the list, then I click save.
I reopened the "Add/rescan to the library" form and the location previously added has vanished.
How can I fix this ?

Hi,
Make sure you are using 5.0.1.2433 Version.

I tried several times File -> Add/Rescan -> ADD LOCATION -> Local Storage -> D:\ -> OK -> Save -> File -> Add/Rescan and D:\ is there listed.

Hi Peke,

Yes, I have the latest release.
I've tried again and I confirm that it does not work.
I would like to send a video showing my action but I cannot through the forum.
Thank you for your help.
