Is there an option to transfer media between two PMS with the detail of content rating? For example I have a WD My Passport used for road trips with the kids tablets. Primarily want to load the WD device with kids content. Rather then pick through a list of files from file explorer it would be awesome if I could just transfer the “kids” content.

One is at home which contains the bulk of my content. I have others outside of home because of ISP restrictions on "not running servers" on their network.   I would love the ability to have Plex Media Server transfer a show or movie to another PMS instance. This would enable me to make an item at home accessible by having my Plex Media Server at home MOVE or COPY it to a remote Plex Media Server.   Currently, I have to ftp or ssh a copy outside fo… ---

I believe mobile sync is not what I am looking for…the device I am trying to “sync” with is a Western Digital My Passport running another instance of PMS. This solution is supported by PLEX for a mobile PMS. > [@WD My Passport Wireless Pro use offline](https://forums.plex.tv/t/wd-my-passport-wireless-pro-use-offline/524634): > > If anyone is using their Passport/Plex without internet access and having issues, the following link should help. It allows me to use my Plex server without internet whenever I like. StevieJ ---

Oh sorry. Misread your comment. Thought you just wanted to use the tablets. If you are using the MyPassport, there is no quick way to transfer files from another PMS. You’ll have to do it manually. ---
