How do I select all files in a folder to add them to a playlist or collection? I tried using the select feature with the shift key and clicking but it selects the first couple of files and the last couple of files. Files in the middle are not selected. It seems like plex can only select a few hundred at a time.

This is a limitation due to the way how Plex web displays a long list. It loads it in âchunksâ.
If you just Shift-click on the first item and then sroll fast to the end of the library and shift click on the last, there may indeed some items be missing inbetween.
There is no good solution here. You can either try to scroll slowly, so you see all posters inbetween appearing or you have to add the items also in âchunksâ or âbatchesâ to the playlist.
But a âSelect Allâ button would overcome that because it would know to select all the files in all the âchunksâ whether or not they are âloadedâ yet.
