I built a new server… Installed Plex… Plex found my libraries from the old server on the network… automatically and loaded them in… two of the libraries are rather large… one is 330,000 plus… it took me over a week to load it on Plex ( 24/7)… It shows the songs in the library but doesn’t play them because it can’t find them… after 3-4 months of trying to figure it out… I noticed in the ‘Status’ screen it shows the drive path… I’ve done Update, Refresh, Analyze… Is there a feature that remaps the drive… So I don’t have to reload the library for a week… ?? Any thoughts would be welcome… Thanks
Why not changing the drive letter of your
hard drive(s)
or network share (simply un-map + re-map)
to the letter it had before?
Yes I thought of that but All my other media is tied into the new server with the new drive letter…that took me a couple of months to set that up… it looks like plex isn’t set for this issue I have… the metadata down load is why it takes so long… my Plex metadata folder is over 150gb… my tags are up to date already… I’ve check and unchecked boxes and moved “Local Media Assets” to the top of all lists… embedded tags… thanks for the input…
Very advanced technique, use only if you know what SQL is:
