I'm not, I run the global update every 6 months or so to update those IMDB ratings.
Then every time I have to add something, I select "Add to Library" under Files.

So I would select movie_50 in this example because its new and select "Add to Library"
This way there is no need to scan its parent folder 'movies' because that just takes forever.

Code:

• movies
  • movie_50 (2024-10-17)
    • myfile.mkv
      
  • movie_49 (2024-09-17)
    • myfile.mp4
      
    • myfile.srt
      
  • movie_48 (2024-08-17)
    • myfile.vob
      
    • myfile.sub

One of the ways to make scanning quicker is to have multiple sources, then using the sideblade menu in file mode you can choose 'scan for new content' for just the one source that contains the new additions. If you already have created the .nfo with a 3rd party application, the scan will be local and fast as a background task.
