Watch frequency

[raraz]

Is it possible to change Watch_frequency to something smaller than 5 minutes?
I would prefer if the update would be immediate.

You can edit Apps/oversight/help/catalog.cfg.input.help

However this will put a high load on your NMT and will probably make it un-usable as a scan with no new content found may take a minute to go through your library to find out whats new.

how are you adding content ? there may be a URL your downloading app can use that will kick off a scan, that you can trigger when new content is added. I have to work it out though!

It would be sweet if sickbeard could ask oversight to scan on download!

How should I edit this file? As it is only a help file?

I add files with Samba or FTP or using the blue USB cable.
I remember before my crashdown that when I added a title that it took about 1 minute to see it appear in the list.
I am just not sure anymore how I did that.

You can edit the file and add more options to the drop down list in the GUI. However I don't recommend scanning more than every 5 minutes, try to use the URL method for immediate updates.
