Library lose file
trodesson:
Yes, the difference in the number of files is certainly due to the non-audio files (booklet covers etc.). But the fantastic news is that with this setting, I don't seem to lose any more files ;D ;D ;D ;D . I started to add some lost files and the total increases well each time by the number of files added (before I added 10, I lost 20 or 30 :() and it seems to stay stable. I'm really happy and grateful for your help, I've been trying to understand and solve the problem for over 6 months, THANK YOU for your help. Now I have to re-import the lost files, and it will take a long time ::)

Years ago I was ripping CDs to the network drive scanned by MC via a very slow network connection. This slowed down the ripping process considerably, and often MC would recognize the presence of new files and complete the auto-import before the ripping process had finished. I'd have to manually complete the import.
I have improved my network setup since then, and I rip to a local drive and then copy to the MC destination (over the network) after ripping has completed. MC never misses any files now.
If you rip directly to the NAS try instead ripping to a local drive and copying to the NAS after the rip has finished.

Thank you for your advice, but I never had problems when importing new CDs (I recovered all the titles) but I regularly and randomly lost some

I agree with DJLegga, with a large(!) collection like yours, it is a good idea to rip your CD on a temporary place on another computer: that way you can easily have a view containing only your recently ripped CDs. It is much easier to make a general check on the metadata you just imported, before having your new records lost in the jungle of your 200,000 existing records.

Hello to all ;) It's been 10 days since I changed the automatic import setting following this advice: "Make sure to disable 'fix broken links' option in AutoImport settings" and since then, as if by miracle, my media library doesn't seem to lose its files anymore. I started to re-import missing files from a local backup and it seems to work. Before going any further (I have just finished the "A" :-[ ) I would like to be sure that I have solved my problem and not just, as the French expression says, broken the thermometer ;) Can you explain to me what is the purpose of this function "fix broken links" and confirm its role in the loss of my files in my nas
