I turned on video preview thumbnails, and I can tell they’re being generated by the fact that the fan on my PC is blazing during the scheduled tasks window. It’s been at it for a handful of days now, which is longer than I expected… I’m wondering if there’s any way to tell how far along it is?
count the number of *.bif files in the Plex data folder.
When all video thumbnails are done, it should be equal to the number of video files in your library(s) (including local extras and trailers)
I wish they implement some better overview: https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/179392/feature-request-indexing-status-resource-monitor#latest
That’s helpful… thanks. But yes, some kind of window into what’s happening with scheduled tasks would be pretty cool.
