[QUOTE="JimCatMP, post: 893810, member: 103549"] Hi Your DATABASE is 12TB - I assume that's your external content and not the DB:-) If your external content is that big AND you rescan on start up, that's potentially a lot of data to process - do you mark completed TV series as 'Ignore on Scan' - as once you have the info, why rescan is my view - and have you limits on fan art, etc etc - I currently have 130 odd series (less than 2TB), but only scan on about 8 of them, as other are finished or between seasons. Also, once you have you DB, I'd suggest making copy of it and the relevant thumbs, so you can step back to a know working point and then update IF you get corruption (which I have had once, need full OS re-install & rebuild BUT TVSeries & Moving Pictures back to 95% correct in minutes from backups:-). As with all backups, make it a regular task - for me, it's weekly. Without knowing how often you add content, I personally would never run TVSeries on start up (or any other similar service - make debugging problems easier) and it has good options to scan on periodic base.
