You are responding a 2 year-old thread (and I suspect the bug being referred to has already been fixed).

@carvallo - You seem to have the same problem as me. I was also confused about the manual scan button. It's hard to know whether the scan has finished - or even started at all. I activated SSH on my RN102 and executed the "top" command to see if any new scanning process started up. As far as I could tell, there was no activity from ReadyDLNA. At least not one that consumed CPU time. I also checked the log but there are no entries in there.
To me it seems ReadyDLNA scanned half my library and then the "scanner" died, leaving the DB in an incomplete state. Is there any way I can delete the DB and start over?
Twonky is also a solution to this. I'm not sure how to install it though. I opened a thread in their forum but I haven't received any replies yet
