Server Version#: newest on Ubuntu Server Player Version#: newest Hello all! If I have activated the folder view in Plex and select the first and last file in the folder with shift and click in order to select the entire folder content, this no longer works. Until a few months ago, this was still …

There’s no bug — at least that’s what I’ve learned. You can still use your approach. The only caveat is you cannot just jump to the end of the list but you need to scroll down so Plex can actually load/display the items in between. I guess that’s the price of fast scrolling through large libraries…

I have already tried it in all the ways I could think of. Even with slow scrolling. It stops at about ~200 files. I can’t select more than that. Have you tried it yourself? edit: And even if it were possible as you describe, it would be very inconvenient. Why isn’t there simply a button: “mark a…

[image] matradix: Have you tried it yourself? Yes… just marked my entire tv-show library displayed by episodes

Presumably it is something else in this episodic view. But that does not help me. My question was about a folder with ~1000 files.

Tested w/ 2k+ audio tracks and 3.7k+ episodes. There’s no difference in how Plex Web is handling this for different display modes (by folder, movie, artist, album, track, show, season, episode).

I don’t have my Plex here at the moment, but I’ll try it again this evening. It can’t be that it works for you and not for me. :wink: What exactly is your procedure? Do you select the first file with shift + click, scroll a bit (how many files?) select again with shift + click, scroll further…?

Select the first scroll down Page by page, waiting for all posters to show at the end of the list, hold Shift and select the end of the selection There’s no harm in holding Shift along the way or to occasionally verify you’re still good (Plex Web will highlight all items in scope of the multisele…

Following Tom’s procedure, I can recreate his result, but I can also recreate matradix’s result by scrolling a little too fast, or by jumping to the end. I can’t agree with Tom’s notion that this isn’t a bug. The “caveat” of not being able to jump to the end of the list is not intuitive, and is no…

Yes Tom, if I scroll down slowly it actually works for me too. I can also reproduce Beckfield’s observation with me. So the list is loaded when scrolling down slowly. Why is not everything loaded immediately in the background when entering the library / folder? Since it worked with the old plex w…

Marking everything is no longer possible

I don’t necessarily disagree… I take it that loading the full library (even in background) will have a toll towards performance that’ll put users with huge libraries on the edge. Hence my remark about this being a caveat
