Add/Modify a DLNA share restarts indexing for all shares

Add/Modify a DLNA share restarts indexing for all shares

I have 3 DLNA shares. Two are always active. The third I turn on/off for my needs

Whenever I enable/disable DLNA on one share, indexing restarts from scratch on all 3 shares

This is really annoying as it takes time because of my huge database. My files.db is about 100Mb and it is truncated to zero every time I modify a share
Even the art cache is completely wiped

Is enabling/disabling DLNA on different shares something you need to do often?

Re: Add/Modify a DLNA share restarts indexing for all shares

I don't like my children accessing movies intended for older people

I keep movies not intended to be watched by them on a separate share and I only enable it whenever I need to watch something
Also, users permissions don't apply to DLNA, so no way to fix it by limiting permissions

The children share is always on

This is really annoying
