Hi

My Auto Import config is simple

One folder F:\MusicLibrary, Analyse Audio on import, Lookup cover art , Build Thumbnails , Update for external change

Left alone this rarely if ever runs

If I do Tools>Import> Run Import Manually all works fine

Any Thoughts -- Build 23 / 77

Is F: a local physical drive or a Mapped drive from a share or a NAS?

Hi Spike

Its a 3Tb locally installed HDD . I have a beefy desktop PC (i7 16Gb RAM) with 1 x SSD (all library stuff plus programs) & 3 x HDD (Media Data) which acts as my main working PC and my MC Server

I'd better explain my question now 

Personally I've heard of auto import failing on mapped NAS drives more often than local drives. MC seems to normally do a very good job of detecting changes within the watched folder for local drives.

I turned off auto import ages ago and do all my imports manually via a button on the menu bar at the top of the screen (right click in a space to the right of 'Help' to customise it) so I'll let someone else chip in with suggestions to your problem.

Double check your auto-import settings.

Is it this problem?

What is the version of Windows that you use?  Is it 64 bit?

[MikeO]

Its 64 Bit Windows 10

Defender disabled for the media drives , there is a 2, 3 & 4 Tb Drive involved

I have had this set up for 3 years at least with no issues.

Other than Windows changes and keeping current with MC there has been little change

I'll read the link in detail when I get a sec

I felt like MC was not picking up some of my new media either as of late, but I didn't get around to investigating it quite yet..

Are there some news about auto import? I have MC23 on my raspberry and the auto import works only if I start it manually. An automatic feature which works only manually is strange. But I see no other solution. But if this is so: how can I start tha auto import remotely from my Mac? Remote Desktop is slow and not wasy to use. Is there some possibilty via terminal and ssh or so?
