Timed: The folder will be scanned at regular intervals determined by the Scan interval
setting.
Inotify: This option is not used.

Scan level
Basic
: Files are scanned for metadata (such as ID3 tags in MP3 files) only once, when first
added to the database. If a file’s metadata later changes, the change will not be
detected.
Full: Files are rescanned for new or changed metadata at every scan.

Recursive
If this option is selected, any subfolders of the selected folder will also be scanned (with
the same settings).

Include hidden files/directories
If this option is selected, any hidden files or subfolders (i.e., those whose names begin with
a dot) will be included in the scan.

Scan interval
The number of seconds between rescans. A value less than 180 (three minutes) is not
recommended, as the system performance of your MeeBox may be adversely affected.

Enabling/disabling the media server

Your MeeBox’s UPnP media server is enabled by default. The media server should have
very little impact on system performance when it is not actively being used, so it is safe to
leave the media server enabled all the time. You can, however, disable it if you wish.
To disable the media server:
1. In your web browser, go to http://meebox:8090/ and log in as admin.
2. Click MeeBox Settings.
3. In the menu, click Features.
4. Clear the check box under Enable UPnP media server, and click Save.
