This small, but important, release includes some more improvements related to file scans, plus an important fix for anyone using UNC paths on Windows.

This release’s changes are:

Scanning

• Make sure directory “streams” are closed after they are traversed (avoids leaving too many files open on Linux based installations).
• Consolidate scanning onto the same thread to avoid backpressure building, if updating compliancy take a long time.
• Drop albums when/if backpressure does occur, to make sure we keep the scan running.

Other stuff

• When a UNC path is used to specify the current music library, make sure current artwork can be displayed in the UI.
