Plex Media Server - Synology DSM 7 Preview - Issues

To all reading here:

I will be archiving all preceding posts in this thread to a linked “archive” thread.
The thread will be accessible to all for reference purposes. (Read only)

I am doing this because the updated packaging addresses several issues:

  1. Previously download subtitles (subtitle agents) did not migrate correctly.
  2. Having previously backed up / restored the Plex share broke ACLs and block proper migration.
  3. Incorrect ACLs were not detected properly resulting in a false migration success message.

These changes now cause migration to require significant time to complete because:

  1. ACLs are corrected.
  2. Ownership is changed
  3. Subtitle links are corrected

The approximate time required to complete is about 2 minutes per 1000 items indexed by Plex. (e.g. 10,000 items will about 20 minutes to complete)

Please stand by while final checks are made and updated packages generated.
I will post an announcement when updated packages are available for download.

PS: If I can make it happen, I will also be introducing multi-language support for the UI element. (I will target French and Spanish first but include more if possible)

PPS: I will do my best to help those individuals who have metadata in various states of migration.
