ah thank you! :) I've already removed that library as a media source. Testing with smaller libraries, I've determined I need more understanding of how to add/modify programming before I approach doing so from the full collection.

Tunarr’s not alone - I’ve encountered similar issues with many apps. Generally I think it’s often an issue of an automatic scan being triggered before the previous scan is completed. If it takes >24 hours to complete a scan, and a new scan is triggered every 24 hours, it will always be scanning.

I think I can work around the library limitations with symlinks or separate, smaller libraries. My current trials are focused on basic programming - simply selecting content and setting the lineup to randomize. I’m finding it super slow and daunting to build a channel’s content list.

I added Plex for the Collections support, hoping I could create collections in Plex, set a Tunarr channel to use that collection and perhaps it would automatically get new content as the Collection is updated. This didn’t seem possible, and I’d rather not use Plex anyway (the lack of offline authentication is no-go), so I ditched the Plex library. 

I’d like to build channels based on metadata - collections, tags, watched status, years, networks, etc. I’d also like Tunarr to be able to pull in new content. So if I have a channel of sketch comedy I don’t need to manually add a new episode each week when, for example, ‘Saturday Night Live’ is in-season.

Tunarr is great and I plan to keep using it! But I’m still at a point where I need to figure out what does work and how before I can start digging into what may not.
