- recorded TV means I record to an mgeg.TS file, then post-process with command-line Handbrake to convert to .mp4, all in the shared directories.
I saw the post about torrent files and the suggestion to not save in a shared directory, so I thought the same issue could be happening with the Handbrake conversions.
I added
-Dserviio.forceLibraryPoller=true
-Dserviio.libraryPollerFrequency=1
to ServiioService.exe.vmoptions as described in the wiki.
Now, serviio.log shows "Added repository 'D:\Videos' to delta scanner (POLLER)", but even manually added files are not being added; "Force Library Refresh" sill works.
What is going on?
The library adding mechanism has been reworked in 1.5. 1.4 was basically invoking forced scanner at a given interval, in 1.5 the process is much less CPU intensive and only looks for delta in the filesystem, based on system events. That mean some use cases, like saving files in shared folders might not work as before, because the system either keeps sending events as the file is being saved / converted, or doesn't send them as expected.

Do not send me PM for support as the solution can't be shared with others.
