Hard drive source crashed. How can I acquire movies list of lost movies from that drive?

Greetings!
I recently had a hard drive with about 700 movies crash, and I lost all those movies. I have 1500 titles in total on Plex. They are all still listed in the Plex movies listing, but I would have to click on each individual movie to see if it was still available or lost in the crash. Is there an easier way to create a simple list of movies from the effected drive/source so I know what movies I need to replace? I’ve done a search here, but the fixes are old and Plex doesn’t support plug-ins anymore for those fixes. Surely there must be a way to isolate titles from the source that was lost.

I failed to initially mention I’m running on a Mac.

ExportTools as well :wink:

Webtools is faster for this task

In Settings -> Library, disable Empty trash automatically after every scan if you have not already done so. Same for Scheduled Tasks. Disable any update/refresh/etc tasks.

WebTools still works. The Find Media tool lists both unmatched and missing files.

I should have mentioned I’m on Mac.

That doesn’t change the recommendation. :slight_smile:
