In a clean, new db, I point the Device scanner to a folder and import some files. When I rescan the same folder, the imported files reappear in the Device Scanner and have to be deselected; if not, they are reimported, again and again. Is this how it's supposed to be?
Edit: I found the right click option to never show these files again, but why should we have to do that step? And what if we need to reimport a file?
Also, when new files were imported in the db, the fields in the Add/Edit Window appear filled; but in the Quick Edit (Video, Audio etc) no values are populated; I need to restart XMM to see the contents.

I am having the same problem. I've imported over 900 movies, but when I go to import a new one, the Device Scanner is listing ALL my movies, not just those that aren't already in the database.

Hello and sorry for delay guys!
I am debugging the Device Scanner just these days, I will let you know If I found something wrong with it.
Thank you! |

EDIT: And it goes on like this. I chose new folders, import some films, some times the Quick Edit works at once, some times it needs to restart XMM. It's driving me crazy.
And the second issue (imported files reappearing in the scanning window) still persists in all cases.
I feel with you ... this must be really annoying. But there has to be something specific for your system / configuration which tricks XMM8 into misbehaving. Hopefully it can be found out what's causing the trouble. |

I run Xmm as admin and never install in in ProgFiles. The main Edit window is normall - just the Quick Edit doesn't show the data.
EDIT: Please not that when I switch to the HTML page, all values appear without restarting. It's only the QE pane that doesn't populate. |

Nothing unusual with it. Added movies will show the imported stream information (Video / Audio) after the import window was closed. If this does not happen for you it may be that some db update operations fail.

I wonder if it could be related to the permission level of XMM in your environment. It's not the way it should be with a 100% Win7 / Win8-ready application but it works for me to
- give XMM8 administrative rights
- explicitly set permissions of XMM8s program folder and all subfolders to "full" for my user (because I've installed XMM8 under program files(x86)).

Strange. Let's see what Alessio has to say.

Well, you've insisted, didn't you? 
Here comes the bad news: I cannot confirm this for 8.0.4.4. Did the following:
(1) created a new db
(2) run device scanner (pathes like on my main db)
(3) unchecked ALL found movies
(4) selected six movies for import ... hit import selected
(5) closed XMM 8
(6) started XMM 8 again ... the test db showed the six imported files
(7) run device scanner again ... it found six files less than on the first import = the six files already imported did not reappear.
There must be something special going on on your machine. But I have no idea what, sorry. |
