How to filter photos by file extensions？

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
1

Server Version#: 1.25.6.5577

I have photos with both raw file and jpg file, they have same file name but different extension. Like IMG_123.jpg and IMG_123.arw.

I want to hide all raw files such as xxx.arw and xxx.cr2 files in Photo Library and only display jpg and png files. How can I do this in plex?

I changed the code in
/PlexMediaServer-1.25.6.5577-c8bd13540/Resources/Plug-ins-c8bd13540\Scanners.bundle/Contents/Resources/Common/PhotoFiles.py
but it isn’t work. I don’t know how to implements this function.

You can use a .plexignore file to tell Plex not to catalog files matching a specified pattern (e.g. files with specific extensions)

Thank you for your reply.
I just test the .plexignore file and it works.
