appoint a folder and subfolder to add

[ServiceVerkoop.eu]

i would like to suggest to add a function to appoint a (sub)folder to bulk add instead of a scan.
a plugin would be great too if adding such function becomes a problem.

This would be handy with very large amounts of downloads. like 10K downloads per folder.
Even a smaller amount in parts would be ok as long there is a function to appoint the folder to add.

The current scan function skips very large folders (there seems to be a limit? if so where to change it?)

the point is:
there is no function to bulk add the files to the downloads except one by one
which will not work with the need of add 900K files.

Hello,
thank you very much for your feedback and for helping us think this through.

I have prepared a new pre-release version in which the first part of the issue you reported has already been addressed. I'll send it to you via private message.
If you have a moment, please could you briefly test this version in your environment?

The following points would be particularly helpful for our evaluation:
1. Does the affected process now work as expected?
2. Are there still any error messages, anomalies or discrepancies?
3. If something isn't right: brief steps to reproduce the issue.
4. If possible: a screenshot or log extract.

As soon as I have your feedback, I'll get straight on with the second part of your request.

Thank you very much for testing.

Hi,
to make sure we fully understand your second request:

Do you mean that monitoring should allow selecting a specific folder (including subfolders), and then scan/import only that part instead of the entire download directory?

If yes, that makes sense and is technically feasible.

For now, we would plan this for v6 rather than the current v4 branch.
Once you confirm this is exactly your intended workflow, we can define the v6 implementation details.

Hi, Thank you for replying.

That is what i mean yes!
I will tryout the version you sent and come back when tested

The version you sent me solved the problem of skipping files while scanning as they are now being scanned
