Is there any way to set how frequently MC runs it's auto-import?

Thanks!

[~OHM~]

No. well unless one of the gurus have a script. but you can run it anytime you want!

do you have Update for external changes checked? this works well for me. and you can put a shortcut to run a manual update right on the interface.

Where is the "Update for external changes" checkbox?

It is probably checked but I started digging and then figured I'd ask...

Thanks!

tools>options>libary and folders>click on configure auto import

Thanks, it was checked... but adding the auto-import button to the interface is also a cool way to go...

Cheers!

Please do tell. You mean standard view or theaterview?

What if you are at a Client and you want to run Auto Import on the Server? (without going to the server)

standard view (who wants to tag from theatre view?  anyways)

right click on the upper toolbar where File, Edit, etc and customise toolbar.  you can add all sorts of stuff.

Note that auto import is typically *not* a timed action, but runs on demand based on notifications about changes to the files from your operating system. As such there isn't exactly a time to configure in the majority of cases.

There are exceptions where a timer is used, if for some reason those file system watches cannot be setup, but since that's a rather special and typically uncommon case, it's not currently configurable.

Please do tell. You mean standard view or theaterview? standard view...is just a right click upper top left and choose customize. I don't use theaterview so I don't know about that...

What if you are at a Client and you want to run Auto Import on the Server? (without going to the server) I don't think that is possible but I'm no guru
