Way to Rescan Library/Requeue Files via API
Hi,
I'm trying to encode files to a smaller size using QSV. To do this, I had to enable the "re-encode HEVC" option in my workflow. This caused the encodes to run indefinitely, leading to files failing because the process would auto-cancel.
I've resolved this by adding a step that checks if a file is at least 24 hours old before transcoding. However, this now means that newly downloaded files are not being processed.
My current workaround is to rescan the library every few days, which re-queues all the files.
Is there a way to trigger this rescan via the API?
I've experimented with different workflows and nodes, but they kept failing because Intel Arc support is relatively new and not well-supported in the available nodes.
Thank you for your help!
