Server Version#: 1.29.0.6244 Player Version#: 9.9.0.35519; nVidea Shield 9.1.0 (33.2.0.125) After multiple attempts over the past year to get Plex Music to display music files like my other music servers, I finally succeeded in general yesterday. When I tried to play Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Jo…

check your permissions. Betting Plexmediaserver doesnt have the needed rights

According to the Plex screenshot, my library contains 452 albums. Please explain why I need special permission for one additional album. What kind of permission is needed? Thank you.

Hi. As far as I am able to determine, my permissions are correct. FYI, I just changed Plex’s permission from “read/write” to “read only,” but that did not make my missing music album reappear. While I greatly appreciate your efforts to help, I must ask you again to explain how any error in my permis…

Hi, ChuckPa, First, I changed Plex’s permission back to read/write in PlexMediaServer because I have the same permission in Media Files. Second, I have not activated either the Advanced Share Permissions or the NFS Permissions for PlexMediaServer or Media Files because I have no idea what those per…

@Landlubber [image] Landlubber: I must ask you again to explain how any error in my permissions can affect only one music album Lets say you have volume1/music/The Beatles/Abbey Road and in that directory 01 - Come Together.mp3 And you have: volume1/music/The Beatles/Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely H…

Chuck, Pa, Here are two screenshots of the files (AIFF and FLAC, respectively) for that album, the only album that isn’t seen by Plex: [Screen Shot 2022-10-10 at 5.36.26 PM] [Screen Shot 2022-10-10 at 5.36.12 PM] Plex does not see the FLAC files either. FYI, I purchased this album from HDtrack…

[image] Landlubber: The quirk that was driving me nuts a year ago is the way various music players sometimes handle punctuation marks in the metadata. If you look at song 05, you will see a reference to the film, Blues in the Night. This film title should be displayed as “Blues in the Night” rat…

When you added that directory into your Synology the directory permissions may not be correct. See Installation & Setup of Plex Media Server on Synology - #6 by ChuckPa
