Re: Tracker problems
 

My music collection is around 4GB and the library takes less than 1 minute to update. I really dont think 25GB would take more than an hour?:eek:

Usually in such a case, I would recommend you to do the following:

1. Backup your contact and important messages.

2. Use Terminal
then
then
this will reset tracker

3. Reboot your phone and when its back, check if library update's fine.

BTW, it's definitely a tracker problem, but not necessary a music collection problem...Could be anything with which tracker interacts.

To see tracker status
Then it'll output which tracker entities are stalling.

damn, put 45gb of music onto mine without issue...

Re: Tracker problems
 

I have this problem too, I'm still trying to figure out how to make it work.

This showed up after flashing to PR1.3 and not a second before.

Re: Tracker problems
 

I usually get the opposite comments, SigmaPlayer cannot find some mp3 which the stock player sees.

SigmaPlayer relies on tracker database.

If you wanna know if tracker has those mp3s indexed, try with
you will find a txt file in your MassStorageMemory main directory with all your tracks which got indexed. That command must be run when you're not in mass storage mode.

@gunnsean:
that tracker hard reset command must be run from user console, not root, buy you have to specify it will delete all smss, all contacts and so on when suggesting it, otherwise someone may read your post and try to launch it.

Re: Tracker problems
 

After numerous flashes and trying to put 1 song on or 1000, I think that tracker has a bug and isn't working right.

Re: Tracker problems
 

can anyone help me with Search app not showing or searching anything? the little circle on right top just keeps running without anything happening...this has started suddenly, without any particular change or installation in phone....

hasn't this something to do with recent gtalk issues as every time I opened gtalk or Skype over the last day it kept saying "can't import contacts" so I'm unable to see who's online atm...?

Edit: fortunately, I was able to get the Search app working again by tracker-control -r command...
strange is that there was no change initially, then I left the phone alone as I was going to bed...once I grabbed it in the morning the Search was back there...even stranger is that all my files stayed in place after resetting tracker (accounts, contacts, photos, music...), only in the morning it was all gone...then I plugged the phone in via mass storage so I could transfer contacts from computer and once I plugged it out all the photos, music and videos were instantly back...long story short, resetting tracker did erase my accounts, contacts and rss feeds but didn´t touch my music, videos and photos and moreover brought the Search app back to work...

Re: Tracker problems
 

I tried this command to see which files tracker had managed to index, and which it hadn't, but unfortunately I get this

Is there any way to force tracker-search to ignore what ever limit it is hitting?

Re: Tracker problems
 

I get same message, that limit was reached...

my Music library's updaing takes one week and after restart music player it start update librarys again and seems that it takes one week again.

I start use sigma player and it works fine. Music library work fine, only few mistakes with album arts.

Re: Tracker problems
 

if sigma player works, it means tracker is ok as sigma player too takes the info from tracker...

maybe some1 could help on how to get it to be displayed in music player too...

Re: Tracker problems
 

I don't think this is entirely correct, I have similar experience with both Sigma Player and Flowplayer, if tracker is stuck trying to process some file, these two music player will just happily get on with it and let you play the rest of the music that tracker has already managed to successfully index. But the stock Music Player, will insist on displaying the dreaded 'Updating library' until tracker has completed indexing all files (which never seems to happen once it get's stuck :( )
