Problem importing large library

(1/6) > >>

madbrain:
I am using MC 23.0.61 (registered) on an Odroid XU4 single board computer running this OS version :

odroid:~/Desktop> uname -a
Linux odroid 3.10.105-141 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jul 27 04:03:10 UTC 2017 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux
odroid:~/Desktop>

I have a 6TB drive attached by USB 3.0 dock, with a 1.1 TB music collection.

I created a new local library, and ran import manually. Import summary showed that it imported 51386 new files.
However, the summary at the bottom of the MediaCenter window said "51386 files - 68.7GB 15.9 days" . It should be closer to 1.1TB - 155 days.
Also, as soon as I clicked done on the "import details", and then clicked somewhere in the audio tab, to "files", or "panes", the summary at the bottom changed to show only about 5000 files. Right now it's showing exactly 5000.
But I have done the import several times, and sometimes it would show up to about 5500.

Any idea what the problem might be ?

I also have a Raspberry Pi and will try to reproduce the problem on it too.

Same exact problem on Raspberry Pi. Import folder claims to have imported all the files, but afterwards, it's showing 5001 files only.

Sounds like MC doesn't recognize your files.  Have you checked all of "Audio" in the import dialog?  Maybe you have some unusual file extension that MC doesn't know?

I had "audio" checked. Media Center 23 recognizes (almost all) the files. Here is a screenshot at the end of the import with the details of the import. See the "import summary" in the lower left, which shows 51,386 files imported. I clicked the "Import details" to see which the 20 files that failed import were. You can see the 51,386 files at the bottom in that shot (but, oddly, still only 68.7 GB / 15.9 days) :



And here is another screenshot immediately after I closed the "import details" dialog and went to "panes" :



As you can see, it reverts back to 5000 files. Seems to be some kind of limit.
This is very easily reproducible on both my single board computers - Odroid XU4 and Raspberry Pi, both ARMv7.

I did not try on Windows PC yet. I can try to create a new library just to test import.

aoqw76:
The totals at the bottom is not the grand total, it is the total for the selected files in the current view. It is possible that the view you have selected is only a subset of the whole library. Try clicking on “recent albums” to see the lot. If you click on 1 album it is likely to say 10 tracks and 45 mins run time etc.
