Message too big

I just added my local music folder and after moggio was ready reading all files I got the following error message:

I suspect that I have too many music files in the specified folder, but I just wanted to let you know.

How many music files are in that directory? The save file size limit is 1GB, and not currently configurable. This needs to get fixed.

[andreaskoch]

Ok. That explains it. The folder is way past 1GB - I cannot check it now
how many files there are but it's about 80 GB.

It's not the size of the folder, it's the size of the save file. The save file contains metadata about the folder. File names, ID3 info, etc. If that is above 1GB, it fails. Number of songs is the most interesting information.

[andreaskoch]

Ah OK. It's about 18000 files.
