Synology DS218Play with Plex Pass
Hi All, I have read and re-read every post trying to fix this issue. I can only create a basic music library. The Premium Option is not available. I have tried everything. All other Plex Pass options are active and working, just not Premium music.
I have started fresh, logged in and out, upgraded, downgraded, sideways-graded.
I have stopped PMS, cleared the logs, started PSM and created a music library. None of the logs indicate a premium music library being created. In fact none of the logs show that a Music Library is created at all, even though it is there and working. Maybe that is because it is a basic library?
I am at a loss. I am a 30+ year IT professional and I am stumped. I am hoping someone with a fresher brain may have an answer before I lose even more hair
Yes mate. There are numerous threads on this same issue of which nothing works for me. Plex Pass options in movies etc. are all working successfully. Just music is causing grief
Oh no. That is not what I wanted to hear… Is that public knowledge because I looked high and low for information… Do your sources think it will be available in a later release? It’s one of the main reasons I paid for the Plex Pass.
For me, none of those option show up until AFTER I have selected the music directory. Once you do that, the aility to specify a Premium library shows up.
Well, crud. I’ve been playing around with the premium music libraries and I’m not completely sold yet. For one thing they take FOREVER to scan. Then if you have an album that it can’t recognize, it just hangs. So if you have a collection of songs for someone, like it was a 10 CD set but you don’t know the track order or don’t have all the tracks, it will try to place the album based on what is in there but if it fails, it won’t move on. This has kept me from using the function. Last time I tried was several months ago. I may give it another shot to see if it is better today. But previously i could never get the entire library of 500,000 songs to completely scan.
A tool such as MusicBrainz Picard (for Linux) or other tool will put everything in proper order very quickly with optimal tags.
A 500,000 song library (which is insane BTW) would need be done in blocks of 5000 songs.
Structure the files and add one “block of 5000 folder” at a time.
As each finishes, Edit the folder list and add another. PMS does not care if 100 folders are listed.
I deliberately have Picard placed the renamed files in a new root directory so I know what’s done and what isn’t. It allows me to verify everything is accounted for. When the master diretory is clear, One linux mv command and everything is back in position without actual data moving.
Any news if Gracenote will ever provide run time libs for armv8? Or is this never going to happen? Premium Music is one of the reasons why I bought lifetime plexpass
