it must have poo poo itself with a UEFI flash even a bad OS upgrade should let you do a recovery environment boot. as opposed to other vendors who let you manage firmware yourself (doesn't happen) and you get security holes big enough to drive a truck through

i just got a nas the other day and got it setup for kodi. i guess i could use that with itunes too, i was just worried about it taking too long to load up the next song when itunes finishes a track. like a pause in between one song and the next.

vv - yeah that's what i'm worried about

i didn't know osx did efi updates during the os install. i've only ever seen it do them as a separate update through the app store. really limited sample size though, and it's not like the os installer gives particularly detailed feedback

as far as I can tell it works reliably now if you set it up correctly, it's one of those things apple never bothered figuring out because the average person had like maybe 500 songs total not 10,000 like us edge cases

it still causes random weirdness for a case that i understand why apple has apparently never tested: a read-only network share with media on it, added as-is to itunes library to sync to phone

the only thing that doesnt work is marking a album as a compilation since that apparently needs to save something in the id3 tag, sometime ill get around to figuring out what field that is and set it myself

It's kind of hosed up that my early-2015 12" MacBook can smoothly scroll through my entire Elton John discography on iTunes, but my mid-2013 Air can't & ends up beachballing until I kill iTunes through the activity monitor.
