Running koel v2.2.0 on a Mac Mini server running OS X 10.10.5 with PHP7 (installed through Homebrew).

I am having an issue when running the syncscript where PHP runs out of memory after a while. The following is the error presented when it fatals:

Koel syncing started. All we need now is just a little patience…
PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 67108896 bytes) in /Users/exonintrendo/www/koel/vendor/james-heinrich/getid3/getid3/getid3.php on line 1694


  [Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalErrorException]
  Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 67108896 bytes)

It's quite possible that it could be due to the size of my library, but not entirely sure. My iTunes library is currently reporting 43,101 items.

Try increasing your PHP memory limit.

I understand increasing the memory is a solution, but I was hoping for some insight on what exactly is causing the memory to run out. And to what end increasing it going to solve?

Is this issue associated with the size of my library? Will I have to keep increasing the allowed memory usage as my media library grows over time?

During sync, Koel reads your media files and tries to extract data from
them. This process consumes memory.
Now in your case, 134217728 bytes is only 128MB, which is really low,
especially when you have your own server. I'd suggest a 512MB setting.
And no, you don't have to keep increasing the memory, as syncing is
incremental – only new or changed files are read.

Thanks for the information, makes much more sense now.

I would say that this should get into the wiki.
also maybe an error note should be set on the page instead of "unknown" error when setting the path.
