I’m running multiple VPS servers connected to Google via PlexDrive and every time I run Plex Media Scanner against any folder in my Television folder it scans the same 4 additional folders every time. No files have changed in these folders and it affects every server I have. Is anyone else seeing this kind of behavior and know what to do to prevent it?
Here’s a sample of what it looks like from the command line. You can see that it starts with the folder specifed first then scans the additional folders each time.
