My 1st try using Plex Media Scanner.

****** PLEX MEDIA SCANNER CRASHED, CRASH REPORT WRITTEN: /home/pi/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Crash Reports/1.30.1.6562-915986d62/PLEX MEDIA SCANNER/0deeb57b-bcfb-4f55-f8c25590-361ad039.dmp

Aborted

pi@pi4:~ $ Error in command line:the argument for option ‘–serverUuid’ should follow immediately after the equal sign

…So no Crash Report either.

Run as user ‘plex’ with PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR set ?

Didn’t see PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR in the Support Article, but same crash with:

pi@pi4:~ $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/plexmediaserver
pi@pi4:~ $ export PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR=/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application\ Support/
pi@pi4:~ $ sudo /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\ Media\ Scanner --list

Didn’t run as plex, but wouldn’t sudo take care of user ‘plex’?

Guess not :wink:

sudo -u plex /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\ Media\ Scanner --list
 10: Movies
 26: Music
 23: Photos
  7: TV Shows

And works without setting PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR
and only setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Thanks Chuck

Now that I have it working, since --help says that --refresh and --scan are Deprecated, guess I’ll just stick with doing that in the GUI.
