When the Linux ‘inotify’ table fills up, this will cause when Plex to stop automatically detecting new media you add to the server. It will also manifest when there are transcoder problems with Dolby audio codecs. Linux has a default table size which is static. We can increase this at will. On some versions it’s 8192.

If you’re getting a few of them? Go back to your Task Scheduler tasks. Look at the number you’re using and add 32768 to it save it and run again. That will give you some room for growth. You need a few extra slots for the transcoder (if you have Dolby audio) ---

Can you attach the [server logs](https://support.plex.tv/articles/200250417-plex-media-server-log-files/) for me please? I’m wondering if the table is full -or- this is a genuine “permission denied” error on the folder itself (Linux permissions) ---
