Scanning

Functionality

Scan Types

There are 4 types of scan:

• Single Show – A single show can be scanned manually.

• Quick Scan - A ‘clever’ scan that looks in the download directory for shows to scan. It also scans missing episodes from the recent list.

• Recent Scan – A scan that looks at all shows that have had an episode aired in the last few days. The number of days can be specified in the preferences.

• Full Scan – Scans all shows that are set to be scanned.

Triggering Scans

These can be triggered in several ways:

• On Startup

• Via Command Line

• Periodic (Automated)

• When download/search folder/file changes

• Manually

Further Information

• Configuration options are detailed in Options>Preferences>Scan Options

• Further explanation can be found here.

Future Ideas

• To incorporate a ‘Bulk add’ as part of the scan and use the new ‘Quick Add’ Dialog to quickly add missing shows.
