I was wrong and hadn’t tested what I said while working on another function, .plexignore, and thought I understood both.
Reading the threads you linked, I see I also didn’t understand how library level optimization worked, the way it could persist and operate weeks later on new items added. That sure is neat.
@ChuckPA would you please reopen thread → Symbolic link support for 'Plex Versions' directory - #36 by ChuckPa if that’s appropriate considering what’s been said here? Thank you sir.
