Apologies as this is a similar issue, could you please check this as well? Plex NOT respecting scheduled task settings. Keeps spinning up disks. HELP
I’m losing my mind because I have scheduled tasks to NOT do any media analysis yet it keeps doing it, spinning up all disks when scheduled tasks is run. I only checked tasks that shouldn’t be doing anything in the media folder (disk array), but it insists on trying to generate preview thumbnails on files that plex has tried over and over and just can’t. So disks are spinning up and down every single day.
