Hi,

i hadn't started the application for a few weeks. When I started it today, the update during synchronization covered almost the entire collection.
Why are almost all of my titles being updated during synchronization, even though I have blocked most of them from being updated by the web service?

This was due to a data structural change on the online service.

It is something that we do very rarely, so you should not see it again.

If titles are locked, the data is not applied.

I too am seeing this issue.. I just loaded up MyMovies after not using it for a couple of weeks, and now it is updating my entire collection....

Usually, I don't mind, but I have been waiting here for hours to update 2300 titles..

At the start it seemed it was doing 1 title every few seconds... Now I am 1600 of 2300 and it is taking 40 seconds per title to update.

Even if there is a structural change at the server. There must be a way to be able to update the changed fields and do them in a batch instead of 1 at a time... With a couple of thousands records, it should take a few minutes to sync and not several hours or a day to sync.....


Is it just slow for me? Or are others seeing the same thing? I am sure there are people out there with much larger collections than mine.

The sync is not created for titles being updated in batches like this - I think it is more than three years since there was last such structural update.

You should see it take about 1-2 seconds per title - where are you located in the world? Could you have a virus scanner which is scanning the log files?
