Plex Players Player Betas

Okay, I’ve managed to faithfully reproduce the issue using the following steps:

Setup: PMS is open in a browser window. The Photo library where camera photos are uploaded to is selected in Timeline view. Make sure the mobile app can upload over wifi (or mobile data).

  1. On the mobile app, set the Upload Content context to As soon as new photos and videos appear.

  2. Swipe the Plex app away. IMPORTANT: Leave it running in the background.

  3. Take a photo using the phone.

  4. After a few seconds, refresh the photo library in Plex Web. The photo you took should appear at the top of the timeline. You may need to refresh several times before this happens. Be patient!

  5. Now find the Plex mobile app in the background and swipe it away so it is no longer running.

  6. Take a photo using the phone.

  7. Refresh the library in Plex Web. This time, the photo is no longer uploaded.
