[QUOTE="bert_r, post: 408561, member: 90426"] If you enable the 'web service', hashing should not always be necessary (only for files it doesn't find on the web service). The hashing on itself is necessary because it's needed to find the files on AniDB. TV Series doesn't need to know exact which file it is (only the series and episode number), for AniDB we need the anime, epispde, scanlator, ans sometimes there are multiple files per scanslator ... so hashing is necessary. I'll have a look into the hashing algorithm and see if it could be optimized for speed ... don't expect much though! Regarding DVDs: lwerndly is busy redesinging the plugin to work more like 'TV Series', maybe this will also improve. In the mean time, isn't it possible to add an anime location 'dvd', and just swap the DVD when necessery? I've never tried it though ... I've bought a 1TB HDD for all my anime, it's faster and you don't need to swap disks all the time. [/QUOTE]
