Media scanner won't stop scanning media folders

This isn't an entirely new issue for me, usually I just quit and restart and the damn thing stops doing it for a little while. But I'm sick of doing this, and bored of Plex chewing up CPU processing but constantly scanning the different sections, it does it from TV shows to Movies etc. It is almost a non-stop exercise, and when I look in the logs it shows these scans are indeed constant. I know I could turn off the notifications but that is only the obviously annoying bit.

I'm fairly certain my setting are right, but i've attached a screenshot of them below, perhaps someone can tell me which ones should be on or off?? Option B being there is a fault of some sort with the server software - does anyone else have this constant scanning happening? My media is scattered across multiple external drives, but I tend to use one to full then use the next empty one, so I'm not constantly changing data/media once it is saved somewhere, nor do I tend to move stuff about between drives/media sources.

Any ideas, suggestions or tips to stop this would be much appreciated.
