Sync Breaks when caught up on episodes

When there are no episodes of a synced series, the sync for that series breaks. Sample case: I want to sync all new unwatched episodes of SeriesX, once I’ve caught up to the latest episodes they are deleted (either manually or due to a plex setting to delete after watching) from the plex server, once a new episode is available sync on iOS still shows an error that path is not found. I can setup the series to sync again and it will sync properly, but every time I get down to zero episodes the sync breaks.

Expected behaviour: sync downloads new unwatched episodes of a series once available.

Bumping this as the issue continues.

On the Plex server new episodes show up in “On Deck”, however in iOS sync they show as “invalid path” and new episodes are not sync’ed.

Issue still persists. I have a slew of invalid path series sync’s that I have to delete now that I’ve caught up on those series and create new ones when new episodes be come available.

I’m glad to find that I am not the only one with this issue.

I just got around to rebuilding my Plex installation as I thought it was a problem specific to my set-up, but sadly soon after I enabled the option to delete watched episodes (weekly shows I will never watch again for example) I got a heap of ‘The path is invalid’ errors in my Sync list on my iPhone when there are no new episodes of the show.
