[QUOTE="dir, post: 884547, member: 24485"] I have >3500 movies and 25000 TV episodes across 400 TV shows. MP-TVSeries takes about 30 minutes to go through the entire collection at startup, checking for perhaps 2 or 3 new shows. Then it does it all again a few hours or minutes later if a show arrives. It's insane. It's doing millions of unnecessary I/Os. You only have to enable full logging to verify that this is happening. To have an app push notifications when a new show arrives, in such a way that allows MP-TVSeries etc. to act only on those new episodes, would reduce traffic, cpu, and bandwidth across all my systems. Sure, I have a large collection, but nobody's is getting any smaller and the current sledgehammer approach can't be sustained. As for notification windows, it doesn't HAVE to be MP that notifies you - Growl could easily be used as I have it set up and it works fine. Once Growl notifies me, I then wait for MP to finish doing it's search (about 15 mins) before it shows up. And I believe there's also the MovieTime(?) plugin that pops up to say that it's updated local movie listings, so there's already a plugin that can do pop-ups. [/QUOTE]
