Any chance you could make it support binhex-plexpass docker? My library db is 1.4gb and my blobs one is 4.09 gb. #_# I may need helps lol.. I asked cause I got this error below when attempting to execute it inside my docker container for binhex Error: Unknown host. Currently supported hosts are: Q…

Hi @ChuckPa - thanks for your script. I found it via a Reddit post & started to run it (Windows ps1 version 1.01.01) as my database had filled up my drive overnight I only just got around to reading the Plex forum, specifically this one: [image] Library.db size more than doubled in…

Here we are :smiling_face_with_horns: This is the quick-fix to get you running while the official takes care of the root problem. There is a new command (temporary) DEFLATE It will remove 100 million records per block until done It requires no additional disk space to run. (for those where …

Trying to decide if its worth cancelling my in-progress 8+hr run on 1.11.01 to see if this shrinks my 100GB DB faster. Any problems cancelling an in-process run?

No dice: Looks like pidof doesn’t exist on MacOS, and then it locked it so when I try to re-run it it also fails. Databases sudo ./DBRepair.sh --sqlite /Applications/Plex\ Media\ Server.app/Contents/MacOS/Plex\ SQLite --databases "$(pwd)" deflate stat: illegal option -- c usage: stat [-FLnq] [-…
