Glad things are working.

BTW, at some point you may exceed the number of folders Plex can monitor. This is common when people begin to add a lot of music or photos to their system.

If this happens, Plex will not recognize new media added to your server.

You will see the “`[Notify] Failed to add watch for...`” error in the `Plex Media Server.log` file.

The error is misleading. Your system is not out of space. The fix is to increase the Linux inotify table size.

See Plex Synology [FAQ 16: Increase the number of folders Plex can monitor](https://forums.plex.tv/t/synology-faq-questions-answers-and-a-few-how-tos/490215/22) for the fix.
