Is there a good, current request plugin from within Plex? I have Plex 4.34.4 installed on a Synology, and I'd like to add a way for people to request movies/shows/music using the arr's. Preferably something I can approve before it grabs. I saw RequestChannel but it hasn't been updated for quite some time. It doesn't look like it works on the current Plex Build (correct me if i'm wrong).

EL BROMANCE posted:Ombi is still pretty popular for letting users add stuff, and I keep meaning to reinstall it on my machine. Thanks. I built everything up on the synology community packages. I think now I should have started as docker containers. Is there an easy way to move over?

EL BROMANCE posted:It's about as good a price you'll get without winning the email lotto. You'll get your value out of it eventually I'm sure, as new and currently unannounced features sometimes get released on Pass before/only. I probably spent more on buying it yearly whenever I needed it than just stumping up for the lifetime. I played myself doing the same. Although, I did only pay for 4 mo of Monthly so I still saved. $90 for lifetime is a great deal if you plan to use it. You're saving after 18 mo

Does anyone have a nice travel setup for Plex? I have plex on a synology, and at home I use an amazon 4k stick. When I'm away from home, I've been using an older chromcast that I have around and my phone. It works out ok, but I'm wanting to set up something a little better. Not sure if I'd just use another amazon stick? This is when I am using an airbnb.

Hm. In the before times when I traveled by plane I would just load up my little ipad and it'd be good enough for me. Pack an hdmi/dongle and done. That was before I was using Plex, and just had kodi at home. Maybe I'll just keep with that method.

You could go into authorized devices and remove the one. They will have to re log in, so change your password if they know it. (Your plex):32400/web/index.html#!/settings/devices/all should work I think.

porktree posted:I switched my internet over to Tmobile's Home thing, and it's been pretty great (250 down/25 up consistantly). I had AT&T that struggled to get me 18 up. Ping times are comparable and my COD hasn't suffered. (I'm rural until I found the TMo thing AT&T was the only thing I could get - or satellite) Others may have a better option for you, but i started to run [url]https://tailscale.com/[url] on my systems and it was super easy to set up. It gives you an internalized vpn that you can reach from any internet device running it. It changes your ip's to 100.xxx but then its cake.

Delzuma posted:Windows keeps track of “Date Added” and sometimes during file copy it gets set to some crazy date in the future. I once had all of Doctor Who accidentally set to the year 2100 or some poo poo. There’s plenty of freeware solutions out there to adjust the systems dates and once you’ve got that sorted it’ll fall back into place. I'm having this issue as well, but all my files are on synology. Would the same fix work? Looks like not. This is for a show that I've had since starting up the synology, but plex constantly thinks it has the last show added. The show ended in the 90's so nothing should be changing. I've double checked to make sure nothing has been redownloaded either. edit2: I looked into synology's file station and it shows the date modified to be 09/13/2020 after using AD. So it looks like that worked?. But when I did a re-analyze it still is showing as the last added show. deong fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Sep 16, 2021 |

Warbird posted:Iirc it can depend on the particular container how it maps stuff within the data dir so you’d want to run it once to see how the structure is. After that dumping it into the corresponding location should be good enough; I don’t recall of it saved my watch progress though. Ya, I've been downloading the plex update in app from their servers. So I'm way up compared to the synology community version. "newest online" 1.21.0-3744 vs installed : 1.24.5.5173-7000 I just updated to DSM7 and it wiped my *arr configurations. So I'm taking this time to move things to container. I do have the plex pass, so hardware transcode happens some; but not often. I mostly play straight across.

cruft posted:I've been using the new Chromecast that runs android. It was pretty easy to replace the stock ad-heavy launcher with FLauncher, which stays out of the way well. This is the Chromecast with the remote? I need to look into the launcher I guess. The Chromecast has been great for me. I rarely used the previous ultra (?) I had but the remote version has been great. Except I think I may need that Ethernet add on. I was streaming something from plex at 12mb/s and it had multiple buffering moments on a 30min ep. Only happens on one show so far and it has subs, so might not be network. But on a quick check, it feels like the problem. The Chromecast is about 4ft from the router...

Gay Retard posted:It’s a huge pain but custom release profiles are great: Is there just a file that you can hand edit? I hate those sliders so loving much. I find the defaults in sonarr to be reasonable for my needs, but radar is bonkers. Who wants an 80g 1080 video? Leave that for 4k! I have a 65in TV and feel a 5g 720p is good enough for 90% of my viewings tho. What's the audiophile version of video? Visophile?

So I installed Jellyfin; one annoying thing with plex is that it does not import all my movies and I can't figure out why? Jellyfin picks up 5 more movies than Plex does. I know ONE movie for sure that I can look for in the logs, but after downloading the logs I glaze over. There are like 23 files? Which do I look at? PlexMediaScanner.log seems to use uuids?

I have a 2bay DS218+. I'm close to out of space with 2x18tb drives. If I want to expand the drive bays, would I go with a DS920+ then? I use hardware transcode. Would looking at ebay for a used one be a bad idea? $750 for 2 year old hardware hurts.

Are there any good guides for setting up quality profiles. As for scene standards? I'd like to replace my files with 1080p h.265 when avail to minimize space. But of I drop the file size I'm worried I'll get old garbage rips. I mostly have 720 now and that's fine but if I could get better qual and save space. Win win

I have jellyfin set up, but still primarily use Plex. I go back to Jellyfin to see if updates have made it better. Not sure why, but i just don't like it much. Haven't put in a ton of thought tho. I did find this https://github.com/luigi311/JellyPlex-Watched To sync my watch list between the 2. If it works, I'll be more likely to actually use Jellyfin. Anyone else use this or similar?

I went with Linux Mint for now. I'm comfortable in ubuntu space. I was going to use docker for Tdarr partly for learning. Does this sound like a good plan?
