  1. Theoretically yes, but real life experience dictates that it will only go smoothly if you take the time to make a full backup beforehand.

     

    If you make a backup, you won't need it, if you don't make a backup, something will go wrong and you will lose everything.

    Plex seems confused as to what belongs where as I have TV, films, sports (F1, MotoGP, etc), and miscellaneous

    I don't use plex, so I may be wrong, but I think you are supposed to assign different subfolders to different library types so it knows how to differentiate. You don't need different mappings for the container, just select the subfolders in the tree that you mapped.

    Earlier you had /media, but now you referenced /data, so I have no clue how you have it set up.

     

    I could be wrong though, I just know how Emby and jellyfin do it.

  3. Could be the module, the socket, a bad connection, memory timing not compatible, unstable with all modules driven, etc.

     

    Your best outcome is a clear fail with a single module tested in different slots. That would mean you should be good replacing just that module.

     

    Memory errors can get messy, hopefully your error is easy to replicate and eliminate.

  4. I'm not suggesting you rename anything yet, just delete one of the two mappings and edit the remaining one.

    -v '/mnt/user/unraiddata/tv/':'/media/tv':'rw'
      -v '/mnt/user/unraiddata/Films/':'/media/films':'rw'

    delete either one, and edit the other to remove the trailing tv or F(f)ilms entry.

     

    End result should just be one entry

    /mnt/user/unraiddata = /media

    No I mean "root" and then the password (as the original setup called for)

    root is specifically not allowed to access SMB shares. The only place root is used is the GUI or SSH to manage the server. If you enter root when trying to connect to the shares it will lock you out.

    Do you see the folders tv and Films when you look in the unraiddata share over SMB? The contents of those folders should appear in the /media/tv and /media/films folders inside the Plex container. Keep in mind linux is case sensitive, so Films and films are different.

    Oooh, yeah that's what's doing it. I guess it indexes files a lot slower than everything search does. Thanks, hopefully it doesn't take too much longer.

    If you have too many folders set to be scanned in cache_dirs it will never finish, because old entries will be forced out of RAM before everything is loaded.

     

    This will cause drives to never spin down, the exact opposite of what you are intending.

     

    Only include folders proven to help the user experience. Your default stance should be to NOT cache unless you need it.
