FFS read the replies. @francesco2013 nailed your problem earlier in the thread. With rclone the syntax is not Google:/Media but Google:Media/ and this is the reason why you get no such file or directory.
Considering I did that, too, and it gave the same error…
That line is invalid because it contains no command. Google:Media/ is a directory on your Google Drive not a command. Your line should be something like
That appears to have worked, though looks like I do have to wait for SSDNodes to re-enable FUSE as I get a “fatal error”. Already sent off an email a couple hours back, so down to the waiting game.

Thanks for the help though.
I started with SSDNodes as well, but dropped them during the trial period. I was using too much bandwidth connecting to Google Drive. The movie streaming side was fine and used very little bandwidth. I was on the 4TB package. In just 7 days, I had consumed >700G and only watch a few movies; most movies averaged 2.5GB in size.
This was not sustainable with many family streaming movies.

Noticing that, too, though looks to be mainly when Plex’s scheduled tasks are set to run.
Going to see how the rate looks over the next 3 days with most of the task settings put to a manual / limited state.
As seen in that image, the highest amount of usage occurred at the default scheduled task timeframe of 2am to 5am.
This is exactly what I had seen too. This is why I decided to end my trial. I will say, they had a great price, great bandwidth, etc. They just needed to increase the bandwidth to something much more if not unlimited.
Perhaps if you guys turned off the chapter image extraction you could severely decrease those transfers. I believe Plex need to basically transfer most of each file, if not all, to do this task.
The settings that I used seemed to have worked, here’s a new graph and it does not have that massive spike for several hours… though also because I did reduce the scheduled task time from 2-5 to 2-3.
Quick update, I enabled the setting “Perform extensive media analysis during maintenance” after yesterday’s post to see the impact on the bandwidth used, and it looks like it is that one that is the culprit for consuming so much.
Has anyone using SSDnodes noticed that there cpu is being throttled recently? During the trial I was able to do 3 transcodes easy but recently the cpu throttles after about a minute so I can’t transcode anything. The transcode speed starts at 2.3-3.6 and then after a minute or less it drops to 0.0-.5 which causes it to buffer.
I opened a ticket and they said:
As of now your server is not throttled.
But if the server resource usage shoots up, system throttles the CPU usage without any prior warning.
Interesting. I’m using them simply for slinging data between cloud providers. Got a dedicated box from kimsufi for my cloud server. I was considering adding some media gathering to the SSDnodes, but now I’m not so sure because of the post-processing requirements.
Only time I’ve noticed an issue was when I tried having it transcode 4k content to a 1080p display and another time when I noticed the memory usage hitting the full 8GB. I actually may upgrade to their plan with 16GB of memory, but as for normal playback, I’ve had two people streaming at once a few times now without any issue.
Have you checked the usage graphs on the control panel to see where things peak?
it was working fine for about a month and how it can’t do anything once the transcoding starts, it’s good for 3-5 min and then its like all the CPU power disappears and it can’t transcode anymore. only thing that works is if you are direct playing and there is no CPU usage.

Will have to keep an eye on it then, it’s only been a few days now.
