The issue is fixed in there.

Not yet since the import can take hours, I was going to try it tonight.

It worked fine for me on a M1. It will beachball until finished.
Of course I don't have your Media.
So maybe turn off Media Network in MC.
Turn on logging in MC. If you don't specify a file reset size you will be able to watch what MC is doing during the import.
Make sure no other apps are running.
Make sure where ever you media is, it's on a completely stable usb or network connection.
Open activity monitor and check to see where it's resources are bound up.
To watch the log as it's running the import, open a terminal window.
Once you start the import, in the terminal window type this:
--- Code: ---tail -f ~/Library/Application\ Support/J\ River/Media\ Center\ 29/Log.txt
--- End code ---
It should just keep spinning out tons of lines of info until it's finished.

Ok thanks. Right now I am on a late 2013 iMac. I will be switching to an M1 Pro Max Mac studio in a about a week, maybe I will wait until that machine to do the import/transfer.

Just a heads up. I let it run overnight, and it worked!!!!!
One last question...and perhaps this is a new question/thread. Now that I have my iTunes library mirrored in MC29, is there a way to keep it automatically synced? In other words, if I add a new playlist or six on iTunes to add to my phone. Is there a way, short of doing this big long scan that it will catch and update corrections?
Or can I add playlists and tracks to my iPhone 13 and abandon iTunes altogether?
