Excluding (including) Network drives?

Post by M*I*B »

Hello there,

find that nice software today and it working very well! Thanx a lot for that!

But what I can't find is a way to exclude some mapped drives from scanning. Some networks (like mine) include also server-like systems i.e. a debian server, RaspBerrys, ..., that haven't to be scanned. It also looks like that the MP can't handle linux like symbolic links so MP just run in a endless cycle while try to scan a linux machine...

Here I'm missing an option to say where or what to scan to fill the cache and wehere or what not...

Sorry but Media Preview isn't maintained anymore. Maybe I should put a message about this somewhere.
Indeed, I started this app when people didn't have many computers at home and didn't even think about mixing Windows and Linux machines on the same home network. Well, this is obvious issues in 2020 but Media Preview will remain as-is.
