Plex sync - Transcode cach location

Hello!

Great product, I have searched the forum and found out that there is no way to change the location of the storage of transcode cache.

I like many others have SSD drives as primary disks and a secondary big disk. That´s why I would like to have the temporary storage on my secondary disk and not my primary that gets filled up long before the iPad and iPhone.



Hope you can add this feature. :slight_smile:





Link to thread about this.


You can sym limk it anywhere on OSX or Linux, and windows can do something similar (not sure what they call it this week)

Thank you for quick reply! :slight_smile:

Very good idea, I will try to use a symbolic link. That can solve the problem for now, but my feature request stands.

The symbolic link is a good fix but it would be easier and available to more people if we can change directory directly inside PMS.


yep, might happen, but at least you are sorted for now :)

Actually, you can change the transcoder directory in Plex/Web:

Go to setting, transcoder, show advanced settings, and there you go…


not the same thing. :)

The Sync transcoder is different.
