I see. So if i wanted to move 7.5TB off one drive and scatter it across 8 new drives, I'd have to select subfolders and do a different move job for each subfolder?

I'm trying to do a scatter by moving a directory on disk1 to multiple disks (disks8-15, all empty). However, when I start the move it only moves the files to the first disk (disk8) in the group of disks I'm trying to move the data to. What am I missing?

It's not Plex that causes high CPU, RAM, or Disk I/O. It's the mover process. I have mitigated this for the time being by scheduling my mover to only run once a day at 5am. But now that I've moved into doing a lot of 4K, sometimes i need to manually run the mover during the day and I have to hope no one is using Plex.

Good thought but in my testing this was not the case. Yes Plex scans on library changes but with all the resources I have at my disposal the scan is done in less than 30 seconds. The issue seems to be CPU IOWait. Watching netdata during the mover process IOwait jumps up significantly and I don't understand why.

How does one get 3rd Party Plugin settings (ie. CopyCompleted) to be persistent through restarts?

My backups seem to be going but I keep getting alerts when they are done that there is an error. Yet I don't see any in the produced logs? 20190429_0430_unraid-vmbackup.log 20190429_0430_unraid-vmbackup_error.log

Any plans to update the docker hub dockerfile for 3.10.2 @fryfrog @Pducharme?

Is there any reason to switch to Jellyfin if you already own an Emby Premiere lifetime license? I get that many users are upset about Emby putting previously free features behind a paywall. I don't love that either. But i'm curious of how the two compare at this point.

Are you using Chrome. As @aptalca said it's probably browser cache. I've had this same exact issue on Chrome. No such issue with Firefox. Try clearing the browser cache and trying again.

Would the "Path To Custom Start Script:" field allow for a script to be run before all docker containers are started back up? My goal is to run a backup, then ryn an rsync of all appdata to a remote server which needs to take place while also the containers are offline.

Where in the script would this go?

Correct.

Dude you are awesome. This works perfectly. Now I guess I just need to schedule a cron job to make this run constantly? And the last piece would be a cleanup of the folder it's moving from. Otherwise I'm going to wind up with a ton of empty folders in /mnt/DownloadsPP/TV and /mnt/Downloads/Movies.

I've tested this with handbrake. Say the following file/folder exists: /mnt/cache/Media/TV/The Daily Show/Season 24/The Daily Show - S24E86 - Bernie Sanders.mkv Then handbrake will output the converted file to: /mnt/user/DownloadsPP/TV/The Daily Show/Season 24/The Daily Show - S24E86 - Bernie Sanders.mkv And the same with movies, it will match the exact folder structure. So all I need is a script that will watch the /mnt/user/DownloadsPP/TV and /mnt/user/DownloadsPP/Movies directories and move the entire folder structure underneath into /mnt/cache/Media/ or /mnt/use/Media/

Thanks. I'm thinking all I really need is a simple script now that watches two folders. Something like: If file exists in /downloadsPP/movies/Movie_Title, move to /mnt/cache/media/movies/Movie_Title/ if file exists in /downloadsPP/series, moves to /mnt/cache/media/TV/Series/

Wow thanks so much for this @zacharyd3. Really appreciate the work. Is there a container for this? I don't actually need the naming piece as that's already done by Sonarr/Radarr. I just need to be able to place both TV shows and Movies into a folder and then have that folder automatically move the my Media share. Handbrake can output to the same folder the input was from. My handbrake watch folder has a series folder and a movie folder. Once I set the output folder and use the SAME_AS_SRC option, it will put the encoded file in the output folder under the same directory. So if the watch folder is /downloads (which has series and movies under it) and the output folder is /downloadsPP, handbrake will output a file found in /downloads/series into /downloadsPP/series and a file found in /downlods/movies to /downloadspp/movies. Maybe this would solve the issue @zacharyd3 with regard to parsing movies and tv shows?

First off I appreciate your assistance with working this out with me, so thank you 👍. Yes my tv directory is setup like you have it and for movies it's /mnt/cache/Media/Movies/The Dark Knight/The Dark Knight.mkv. I can output the files back to the Sonarr and Radarr directories but how would I signal to either of them to import the files since they've already done so?

For the purposes of this process I have a TV and Movie directory under media. So new media shows up in /mnt/cache/Media/TV and /mnt/cache/Media/Movies. So i need the converted files to go back into those spots for them to be correct for Plex.

I guess that make sense. I can test that. For now though, my roadblock is the handbrake /watch and /output folder being the same. They can't be the same. So I need a PostProcessing directory and a script that will watch that post processing directory and when it a sees a file in there, copy it back to the original destination under /mnt/cache/Media/. Not sure how to accomplish this.

Got it. So I'll need a PostProcessing output folder and a script that will copy (and overwrite) the file back to /mnt/cache/Media/ after it's done.

Ok so I have handbrake watching my /mnt/cache/Media directory now. The issue I'm running into is using the SAME_AS_SRC key value for AUTOMATED_CONVERSION_OUTPUT_SUBDIR. It can't start the conversion because the file already exists (obviously since it's trying to name the new file the same as the old one in the same directory). Trying to figure out a way to make this work.

But would I want a file that was paused during the encode and then resumed? That wouldn't cause issues with the file?

Why is that?
