Re: Bug : Huge hard disk activity when running Remote Buddy

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
Thanks for asking.

Please note:

a) mds is Apple's OS X Spotlight server. It's not a part of Remote Buddy. Remote Buddy is not scanning your harddrive and does not have any influence on which files Spotlight is indexing at a given time. Please contact Apple if you have any concerns about Spotlight's file accesses.

b) The Movie Library feature for VLC Media Player and DVD Player asks Spotlight for a list of folders named VIDEO_TS so it can present them in the Movie Library.

c) You can disable the Spotlight discovery of VIDEO_TS folders at Prefs > Movie Library.

Best regards, 
Felix Schwarz
