Disabling automatic Watched Folder Scan

Post by Septima »

Hi, I want to use the watched folder, but want to disable to automatic watched folder scan. Instead, I only want to use the manual "Scan watched folder" functionality to trigger the scan. In Config - Folders section, there is a field for "Watched Folder Scan Speed". Would putting 0 (zero) there disable the automatic scan? Or is there a different way to disable the automatic scan but still keep the watched folder?

Thank you in advance for advice!
