--- Comment #50 from Scott <shagooser...@gmail.com> --- The first issue, the pool drive, I use mergerfs: here <https://github.com/trapexit/mergerfs> ver. 2.31. Following your suspicions I deleted the index file, /home/scott/.local/share/baloo/index and changed the config to follow absolute addresses (attached) removing any reference to the drive, pool. This cured the red-flag issue from may last post, baloo now does it's indexing and is only a couple of files shy of the number of files I expect to be indexed. More importantly it no longer duplicates entries, if I disable and then enable balooctl no further indexing occurs, the same is true after re-booting the machine. I performed this 3 times. The new 2nd issue, running balooctl enable for the first time produces a piped balooctl monitor file with 5488 files indexed. Running balooctl status returns 5976 files indexed. So after doing all this testing I find that not one file displays a duration anymore. If I copy any file to my /home/Videos directory the duration is displayed. I have only entered commands which start with baloo...? I have also attached the piped stderr file which may be of some value you.
