Removed Feature I want back: Forced Sync

Two or three builds ago Plex removed one of my most used features: forced sync (refresh) within each library

Since the removal of this feature, a lot of times, in order for plex to show i have new media is for me to actually tick the box: Check for New Media “hourly”

I do not like plex looking for all my media every hour/day as it slows the server down. I do have the checkbox that shows to detect if new media is put in a folder, but many times it doesn’t recognize it.

With the forced sync gone, it just takes a very long time to get media to actually load into Plex, and it seems like i have to tinker with the server to show the new items.

It sounds like you are looking for the update library option, that is still there but it’s moved…

you rock Wilhelm!!! This was driving me nuts!!! Thank you :smiley:

Early 2021 clean-up: implemented (renamed feature)
