I started the scan for my movie collection (roughly 140 movies) on my Raspberry Pi 3B. It has become unresponsive and I can't ssh in now. It seems to be due to all the ffmpeg instances. I have two questions:

Should I wait for an hour or should I just reboot the server? Also, is there a way to disable the setting for chapter images from the web UI? I can't find it in the setting.

That’s really interesting. I did a quick test and the RAM usage is still creeping up but I’d need to let it run for longer to see if it plateaus at a lower level. Thanks for the suggestion.

I'd mean CPU resources. As in, any of those things will hit ffmpeg, which in your CPU uses with very little if any acceleration (not sure if anything for decoding, but most definitely NOT for encoding), and will hog the resources and hamper everything else.

Oh, I see what you mean. Thanks, I’ll look into it.
