I am trying to test out the post processing capabilities and just trying to understand it. I’ve created a bash script and all it does is echo out the time/date and the input variable $1. I write it to a log file. I have put all of this in the Plex data directory in a sub folder I created called “bin” and gave all ownership to the plex user and group. I then put the script in the DVR settings where it asks for it (with the whole path).
The issue is when a recording is finished, nothing happens. The script is not run. The log file remains empty. There is no mention of anything regarding running a script, either success or fail in the log file. It seems as though it is just ignored outright.
When I execute the script manually with a test input variable, it works as expected.
Any ideas?
