Every night my PMS deletes one particular TV show (Gotham, two seasons). The show drops from the library and the files are in the trash bin. Every night. I reload it from a backup in the morning, Plex deletes it that evening without fail.

I try to be a good Plex citizen and follow best practices. And I’ve mostly had a great experience but this has me stumped. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Log files from last night’s “purging” attached. I run PMS version 1.9.4.4325 on a Macintosh with macOS 10.12 Sierra. I have unchecked “Allow media deletion” in Library Settings. My media is all loaded on an external 8TB USB 3 drive. As far as I know, this is the only weird thing happening.

What am I doing wrong?
