General • Re: How to use EV while its indexing/sorting/updating?

I worked with filelists a long time. They are really a great feature!

But having to create a filelist on Computer B (which is now the EV "Server") and transfer it to Computer A (which is the computer, I work with) was not ideal.
So I tried the "Server" approach, but I did not understood it as it is indended, I guess.

I was thinking(aka hoping), that the Client (me, on Computer A) is getting real-time data from the Server (Computer B) when asking for stuff.

But I am proven wrong: EV on Computer A indexes the data from Computer B such as it indexes the filelists from Computer B which I was trying to avoid, because it causes too many waiting time

Unfortunately, both ways are having the same issues for me. (letting the user wait until data is proceeded, which can take some endlessly minutes)

So I guess, there is no way to avoid the waiting time, as I understand from this thread. When data needs to be indexed, it needs to be indexed.

I would prefer EV indexing in the background and using the current DB while it is refreshing, but as long as there is no such way, I have extra time to walk around the block and take a break. Not the badest thing IMHO ;-D
