maximum 41869 MP3 files indexed

I have a huge amount of MP'3 files i want to index in the Twonky mediaserver.
When i try to do so the counter of index music files stops at 41869 files. I attempted several times to get more files in the index.
I did not succeed.
Does anyone know if there is a maximum amount of files you can index in the Twonky Mediaserver?

If you have a NAS, there is limits on the amount of media, determined by the amount of memory in the NAS, and the complexity of your navigation tree.

If you are using a PC, then more likely, is you have a corrupt file that's terminating the filescanner. Switch on file scan logging, do a database rebuild, and look at the log file. Determine the last file scanned. Move it outside your share folder, do another database rebuild, and see if that fixes it.

If you do find a file that plays fine, but causes the filescanner to break, I'm sure the Twonky support guys would be interested in getting a copy of it.
