[Kodi19] Kodi accessing filesystem in Movie/TV show Views and MovieInfoDialog

  • Hello all,

    It's rather a Kodi Problem, but I've got no luck in the Kodi Forum, so maybe someone here can help me out:

    I'don't know, if it's skin related, or it's Kodi itself.

    Sometimes Kodi will access the filesystem where a specific movie or tv-show is stored, just while browsing movie/tv show database (database view).

    I can't figured out, when this is happen, it seems to happen by accidient. But I think it's maybe in some relation with reading mediatags or something out of the files.

    I turned every option in the skin settings to off, to prevent this behavier... No luck

    Why this is so important:

    My media files are stored on a NAS with sleeping hdds, so these hdds will wake up with this behavier.

    My configuration

    Kodi 19.3 with the standard Estuary skin

    Only one share on hdd, which is always on

    The database holds another few shares (different hdds, which are mainly asleep)

    So my questions, can I somehow prevent this behavier? Can I, if necessaary, stop Kodi to read mediaflags / media info from files?

    This happens only with Kodi19 and above....

    Thanks for your support,
