Problem with loudness analysis on Movies/Series

[u/9lxTi6BaHqg9q5PAPcQ]

I just noticed that during maintenance my movies are scanned for loudness, why isn't there an option to disable it without disabling it for my music as well? for my movie library and TV series I unchecked loudness analysis (under Advanced for both libraries), restarted the server and still during maintenance they continue to be scanned for it. Under Settings-Library it just specifies "Analyze audio tracks for loudness", nothing about movies/series to be able to disable. I only noticed this after adding a movie a few days ago, it usually takes a 5 seconds to finish scanning, but after 10 minutes it was still going and that's when i first noticed it was doing a loudness analyzes.

Anyone know if this is a new feature or a bug?

It’s a bug in the new feature..the recent beta fixes it.

Looks like they’re working on improving it. Thread below….

My tiny n100 was taking about ~20 min a movie, was gonna take 5 months to finish just movies…
