It would be useful if you can let us know what time the fan was running in the logs so we can check that time slot in the logs for anything.
The only time I would expect UMS to do that is during the initial file scan

When you take a screenshot can you also note the time, and attach logs that include that time? It is normal for the program to sometimes use the CPU a lot, so I will need to know an exact time so I can reference the logs and see whether the program was doing an unexpected thing at that time

I am having the same issue since upgrading to 9.7.0, it starts out okay but after 30 min or so I hear the fan on my system running and when I grab my laptop its red hot. The OpenJDK service is using 60% CPU or higher and RAM usage is high. I left it running last night and it was using 1.6GB RAM when I woke up. I tried the other day an uninstall and a clean reinstall and same issue, also now since I did that the service isn't automatically starting even though the option is checked on a reboot. Anyway since its lousy weather today I am probably just going to watch some movies so I will attach logs once it starts up again.

Watched two movies yesterday and everything seemed fine, woke up in the middle of night and heard fan running high again, openjdk was using 40% CPU and just over 1GB RAM, attaching log.

I am having the same issues with the fan running constantly. I have to kill the process after I watch a film and also remember to restart UMS each time I want to watch a film.

I am considering downgrading to a previous version for the time being.

I have just downgraded to 9.4.3 and there is zero fan noise, even when watching a film. I haven't tested it running a complete film, but much happier with the noise reduction. Especially helpful as I am currently working from home on lots of Teams meeting.

Hi guys. I have a Intel Nuc 4c/4t and after upgrading to v9.7.0/9.7.1 the CPU usage is very high, 25-30% all the time. It seems that OpenJDK is the problem...
