Connected USB drives are automatically registered as sources and scanned - rewind - 2019-01-02
I have a USB backup of all my media, and when I connect/mount the drive, Kodi always adds it to the sources list under Media Settings. When I make changes to my primary source and "update library," the USB drive is always scanned. How can I force only scanning/listing of files under path /home/me/Primary ?
Here is my ~/.kodi/userdata/sources.xml file:
xml:<sources>
<programs>
<default pathversion="1"></default>
</programs>
<video>
<default pathversion="1"></default>
<source>
<name>Movies</name>
<path pathversion="1">/home/me/Primary/Video/Movies/</path>
<allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
</source>
<source>
<name>Television</name>
<path pathversion="1">/home/me/Primary/Video/Television/</path>
<allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
</source>
</video>
<music>
<default pathversion="1"></default>
<source>
<name>Music</name>
<path pathversion="1">/home/me/Primary/Music/</path>
<allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
</source>
</music>
<pictures>

<files>
