This page allows you to direct the stash server to perform a variety of tasks.

# Scanning
The scan function walks through the stash directories you have configured for new and moved files.
Stash currently identifies files by performing a full MD5 hash on them. This means that if the file is renamed for moved elsewhere within your configured stash directories, then the scan will detect this and update its database accordingly.
Stash currently identifies files by performing a quick file hash. This means that if the file is renamed for moved elsewhere within your configured stash directories, then the scan will detect this and update its database accordingly.
Stash currently ignores duplicate files. If a file is detected with the same hash as a file already in the database (and that file still exists on the filesystem), then the duplicate file is ignored.
Stash currently ignores duplicate files. If two files contain identical content, only the first one it comes across is used.
The "Set name, data, details from metadata" option will parse the files metadata (where supported) and set the scene attributes accordingly. It has previously been noted that this information is frequently incorrect, so only use this option where you are certain that the metadata is correct in the files.

# Generated Content
The scanning function automatically generates a screenshot of each scene. The generated content provides the following:
* video or image previews that are played when mousing over the scene card
* sprites (scene stills for parts of each scene) that are shown in the scene scrubber
* marker video previews that are shown in the markers page
* transcoded versions of scenes. See below
* image thumbnails of galleries
