Filebot Now Not Creating Files Plex Recognizes
Posted: 27 Apr 2021, 18:58
Hi there,
I did post this in one other place but didn't get a response so I thought I'd try here. Please accept my apologies for cross-posting.
I too experienced the breakage as a result of the Synology DSM update. I installed 4.9.3 and it mostly works but I am experiencing a problem that I never had before with FileBot. After it does its thing and moves my files from one folder into a Plex formatted media folder, Plex doesn't seem to recognize most of the media files. Doing the Plex dance of moving the files out and then back in, cleaning the bundles, and optimizing the database seems to solve the problem; but of course that takes away from some of the "set it and forget it" point of Filebot. If there's something I'm doing or not doing, please let me know. I'm a bit of a noob so if it's super technical, I may struggle with it I'm afraid. Many thanks for any assistance you can provide.
