Hi,
I have MC 21 configured to auto-import from folders located on a Synology NAS on my local network. I use software running on the NAS to grab recordings of TV shows (I can't do the recordings on my desktop PC for various reasons) and place them in the appropriate folders on the NAS.
Since setting all this up, I've noticed that MC doesn't always notice the presence of the new files on the networked folders (sometimes it will, sometimes it won't). Just the other day, a new episode of my favorite show came in and was placed in the correct folder, yet a couple of hours later, MC's auto-import still hadn't noticed the presence of the new file. And it's not the only recent new episode that's been ignored, there were several others.
I found the only way I could get MC to recognize the new episodes was to manually run a full auto-import. But this scans ALL the configured auto-import folders on the NAS, which takes a long time. My "TV" folder alone has dozens of shows, each with their own sub-folder, and each of those has multiple season folders. (Note that I have MC set up to auto-import from my main "TV" folder, not each show folder individually.)
Is there any way to have MC do a "refresh" or re-import on a single TV show in its library, auto-importing just from that show's folders? If not, there really ought to be. If I right-click on a show (either in the tree on the left or in the main view) I see no option anywhere in the context menu to scan for new content.
Thanks.
EDIT: Right after posting this I found the Wiki entry on auto-import, with instructions on using Task Scheduler to force MC into running auto-import more frequently than it will on its own. I'll have to look into that. Still, I believe having the option to do a "refresh" import on a single TV show would be useful...
