After updating from 1.15.0.659 to 1.15.1.710 I’ve noticed that Plex ignores my .plexignore files. Have I missed sth and they are not supported anymore or is that a glitch?

We are seeing some other things with the 1.15.0 beta. I recommend going back to 1.14.1 and holding there until it gets all ironed out. Install on top of the existing 1.15.0 and you will be ok.

Hm for me the scan starts immediately after adding a file in a surveyed directory or if triggered manually via the server web interface. And the formerly ignored files start to appear in plex.

I reached out to Engineering and asked for: Should the scanner be able to accept *.jpg and similar expressions? What does it take to have the scanner scan immediately upon demand? I will reply when I get answers back from them

They are gone for the weekend. I will try again monday

I am also interested to hear if there’s any news on this.

OK, any idea, when can expect a fix? Attached a picture to illustrate how important this feature is for photo libraries. This is a screenshot from Android. Every second picture is a RAW (PLEX does not even change the orientation of those), the others the JPEGs. Unusable. [Screenshot_20190507-1305…

I have no insight into Engineering’s scheduling and prioritization. I’m sorry :man_shrugging: I’m equally frustrated because I’m the messenger (and usually get :gun:)

Any way I can donate a cup of coffee, or buy something off an amazon wishlist to influence Engineering’s scheduling and prioritization?

Unfortunately no. We don’t have any influence . All we can do is keep asking and urging.
