Big Media folder? Make smaller video preview thumbnails!

Ahh, I’ll edit the instructions. Good insight, TYVM.

Here’s a method for configuring GenerateBIFFrameInterval that can be done with Plex online and is platform agnostic:

curl -X PUT "http://server.ip.addr.ess:32400/:/prefs?GenerateBIFFrameInterval=10&X-Plex-Token=TOKENHERE"

And to view the current setting:

curl -s "http://server.ip.addr.ess:32400/:/prefs?X-Plex-Token=TOKENHERE" | grep BIFF

(Replace grep with find on Windows.)

Finding an authentication token.
