Hi,

I have just copied a movie to my movie directory that is checked by pley, but the movie is not showing up. The filename seems to be ok and I found the following info in the log:

Mar 01, 2017 19:32:11.878 [0x7fb037c93800] DEBUG - Adding subdirectory for scanner: <DIR>

Anyone has any idea how this could have happend / how to fix it?

If you are concerned about posting the file names, you may PM me the names exactly as you have them. A directory listing is the most helpful.

Since PMS is marking it as ‘nothing has changed’, this tells me it has record of the file previously being there with that signature (checksum). It skips over unchanged files by default. To make it scan/analyze again, perform the Plex Dance (move out, update library, empty trash, clean bundles, move back, update library)
