Something like:

Library has:
xxxx Folders that appear to be books (ie last folder in the chain)
xxxx Folders that do not appear to be books and/or have audio book content in them (also last folder in the chain).
Last Books updated (list about 10).
Last Errors in the log (list the last few, maybe 5 - 10, with dates)

Then maybe an expandable list that allows you to look at the the folder names, especially the non-book folders. Makes it much easier to see if there are any books not coming up as books, especially in larger libraries.

The reason this came to mind for me is that AudiobookLibrary reports I have 935 books, but I have absolutely not way of confirming that unless I go through each author manually. And based on the weird issue I had with a defective MP3, it is conceivable I have an entire folder or two that has bad MP3s in it, I'd never know.

Agree, a "scan log" is needed at this point, I'm just not sure where to put it.
I'm thinking either a new page in /config with a row for each scan that you can click in to.
or possibly update the log page to show a list of scan logs

I'd suggest just adding it to the log page in settings. Put it at the top, with the real time logger under it.

This would be a very useful feature when debugging. As for when/where, I'd recommend just putting scan results in the main log, with levels following the standard log levels. Maybe put "Scan completed and found x items (y new, z changed)" as info, and the rest (new/existing/unchanged Item x found and added/changed/is unchanged) as debug? As for a specialized scan log, I don't think that it needs its own setting, and could be controlled by the log verbosity setting.
