I’m looking to migrate my Plex server to a new VM, from Windows Server to a Linux Machine using Openflixr. The storage will remain the same as a SMB share with the same directories. How can I migrate this without loosing all the metadata for my users like watched, pick up and leave off times and playlists, ect.?
Check out the support article https://support.plex.tv/articles/201370363-move-an-install-to-another-system/ and if you want to check out/clone a repo/dig into python and the sqlite db backend that holds your requirements, this looks interesting https://github.com/mlsmithjr/plex-watchlist-migration I believe there are also some plugins from the unofficial app store that can export to both csv and excel formats for abstraction.
