RE: Why do I have so many errors in my log? - simoncn - 29-11-2017 20:27
Thanks for this. Unfortunately, the large number of files in your library has caused the log to wrap and this has removed the information that I need to see (see step 1 in the instructions that I posted). Can you set contentDir to a smaller section of the library or to just the folder that contains the faulty files?

Here it is, with content_Dir set to one album with faulty files
and writeAllTags not set
Hope it will help

Thanks very much for this log. I have verified that I am getting the same behaviour with startupScan set to true and writeAllTags not set. I think I probably had startupScan set to full when I was testing this previously.
This is happening because of a change in update 92 to improve rescan speed for libraries with a large number of scanning warnings. It has the unfortunate side effect of not showing warning messages on a rescan, which is inconsistent and confusing. I will look into whether I can change this so that warning messages are shown on a rescan without affecting rescan speed.

I am using Minimserver with a Melco.
The MinimWatch log files shows sometimes the following message
(repeated a couple of times) after ReScan
MinimServer: 0$=Genre$12$=Composer$2371 isn't a valid object
This occurs after the "MinimServer[N1-4] is running" message
I am wondering what does it mean ?
RE: Why do I have so many errors in my log? - simoncn - 22-12-2017 18:42
It means your control point is using out-of-date cached information about your library. The rescan has changed the library information and the control point needs to update itself. A good control point should do this automatically. Which control point are you using?
RE: Why do I have so many errors in my log? - ofrex - 22-12-2017 18:51
MinimWatch run on a MacBookPro OS 10.12.6.
Kazoo is running on other devices at the same time also.
RE: Why do I have so many errors in my log? - simoncn - 22-12-2017 19:06
MinimWatch is not a control point. It sounds like your control point is Kazoo. Try browsing back in Kazoo to the top level of your library before doing a MinimServer rescan, or just ignore these messages (they are harmless).

Sometimes the Minimwatch log file contains messages like
Warning: form size extends past end of file in AIFF file import/all/Carlos Kleiber Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra/Wiener_Ph\
ilharmoniker_Carlos_Kleiber-Beethoven_Symphonies_Nos_5_7/01-01-1_Allegro_con_brio-SMR.aif (length 258283630)
The message may or may not appear the next time I rescan, even if have not touched the involved AIFF file.
What does it means ?
I made few tests. This warning appears only after the files (either downloaded from Qobuz or created with XLD on a MacBookPro) have been edited with Metadatics. Metadatics is likely to be the culprit.
RE: Why do I have so many errors in my log? - simoncn - 05-01-2018 21:50
I have reported this problem to the author of Metadatics.

Just started using minimserver and like the simplicity, speed, musical quality.
I have similar problems like Mr. Withers, so this is pretty helpful.
1. Issues with WAV files (which I have lots) example below. The solution is I believe to reconvert using db Poweramp. I tried one file and it no longer features in the error log. Question I have is why is this issue only with some files and when I am able to play them well in jriver and other programs. I will have a lot of converting to do if I have to use them. No other workaround?

2. Illegal characters as shown below. However when I open the tags (in jriver) I dont see any illegal character

3. Incorrect flac header 0X00000.....at offset 0: This is also a incorrect ripping issue I believe. Again this is with many files and those files play normally in other programs

4. Warning messages like below in playlist files. How does one edit these playlist files?
Warning: missing comma on #EXTINF line 2 of file Music Western/Audiophile Downloads/HDtracks 9624 Ultimate Download/PlayList_1318951388171.m3u

5. There are others where the file is missing but the playlist mentions it. Identifying it is pretty cool, however if I cant add that file, will this playlist not work at all?

6. Video files: Some files have this issue
