Nothing playing, but remote bandwith is being used as if something is playing or syncing

Server Version#: 1.15.3.835
Player Version#:

several times in the last couple of weeks I have noticed my remote band-with is being used even though nothing appears to be playing or syncing! a restart of the sever fixes it. does anyone have any idea what is happening?

i’m guessing that I have this going on: remote sync (it would be very helpful if plex would identify syncing as an activity and show it. Can not understand why plex doesn’t (not knowing what is happening causes at least to different problems: 1) has your server been hacked? 2) is plex doing something it shouldn’t) at least that is what was running through my head.

I found this post which help me investigate the logs:

sure enough it appears that it was a remote sync, of which there is no good way of monitoring short of looking in the logs
