I have been using HB for some time and I am loving it, but I have discovered that, at the moment it is see's a text, Image or Subtitle file then it trys to convert it and deletes the file. so am I right that if I do the following then if it see's a txt, image or subtitle file then it will just move it to the destination. I have highlighted my Modification in red. CONVERTED_FILE="$1" SOURCE_FILE="$2" PRESET="$3" echo "pre-conversion: Output File = $CONVERTED_FILE" echo "pre-conversion: Source File = $SOURCE_FILE" echo "pre-conversion: Preset = $PRESET" EXTENSION="$(echo "${SOURCE_FILE##*.}" | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')" case "$EXTENSION" in avi|mp4) # Nothing to do. Allow conversion of known video files. echo "pre-conversion: allowing file conversion." ;; mkv|srt|jpeg|txt) # Do not convert MKVs. Move the file to its final destination. EXTENSION="$(echo "${CONVERTED_FILE##*.}" | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')" if [ "$EXTENSION" = "mkv";"srt";"jpeg";"txt"; ]; then echo "pre-conversion: file conversion not required, moving file." mkdir -p "$(dirname "$CONVERTED_FILE")" mv "$SOURCE_FILE" "$CONVERTED_FILE" else echo "ERROR: Destination file has unexpected extension '$EXTENSION'." fi ;; *) # Remove unknown files. echo "pre-conversion: preventing file conversion by removing file." rm "$SOURCE_FILE"

thanks for the post.

I know this is a old post sorry, but I have been reading up on moving my Raid and I have found a few sites that talk about it, and I would like to confirm a few things. I am happy about the parts @Frank1940 posted above, but I found this posting https://www.spxlabs.com/blog/2018/6/15/move-existing-unraid-disks-to-a-new-server, and they are talking about clearing the cache. but no telling you how. the only thing I can think about is moving out is the cache is my work that is label to go to a unraid like Users folder or works folder, but what about the appdata folder ?. do I need to do anything with this folder ?

Upgrade this morning. No problem so far. Thank unraid.

Hi all I just log onto my windows deluge, and I discovered that I have loss all my connect to my delugevpn. so I delete and then re-tried to enter in my details for the account hostname = Server IP username = pi password = deluge but when I and check my listed connections I am getting a red cycle. I know that my deluge is running as I am able to web onto the client. any ideals what might have happened.

I have the same issue. And mine unraid sounds like a jet engine all the time.

Ok, now I am confused. I have a external USB which I want to point my motioneye to, and I have read about setting disks to Slave. and I right that to do this all I have to do is the following then using the /mnt/cache to /mnt/disks/share UPDATE: ok I was being blond. I found the option after a lot of reading and looking around, if anyone is trying to find it, I found it by: Click on the Advance Tap, then choosing the Container Path I want to change to RW:SLAVE click on Edit and within here you will see the option to change it.

this might have been answer, if so then I am sorry, but I am trying to do the following. I have Motion eye installed and then having the Video clips being saved to my RAID or Cache, I would like to point it to a external USB drive. so I have plug in my USB drive, (sdg) and when I go and try to point my Motion eye docker to the USB, I see that it is noting showing up, as all I can see is my raid Hard Drivers. so do I have to manual type in the path ?

just update my system with no issues. Loving the new Dashboard.

I have tried Open Files, and I personal find that does not show me what files are being access when my Disk 2 and Disk 4 are spinning up. I think I have tracked this down, and it is PLEX. I think it is when it does it automatic library scan. also was on the topic. my Open Files plugin, is no shown on the Main page, and I have to go into the plugins tab and click on the application which gives me the following information. this is normal

I have the same issues that out of my raid 2 out of 5 spin up for no reason. In the hope to help. The dockers that i am running are. Plex, deluge, jackett, sonnar, Radarr. With my testing i am leaning towards plex.

I don't upload. Only download as i use public sites. Have you spoken to your upload site, aa they might be limiting the speed

Have you check the PIA speed connection, as i have discoveres tha my UK connection is running at 3mbs when i am connection.

I have been looking at this docker as a working solution for myself as I am looking at installing some IP POE Security Camera. I have looked around and I can't see any suggests for what type of Camera are best for this docker. so can anyone suggest any good Outside IP POE Camera with will work Edit: would the following be a good ideal. UBIQUITI Networks UVC-G3 1080p UniFi Indoor/Outdoor IP Video Camera with Infrared NETGEAR 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged PoE Switch (GS305P)

thanks that did the trick

Can you please give me an example as my level of coding in shell is zero. And the above code was giving to me.

I have checked my code and it is the same as the above, but I am still getting that error :-(

I have Plex Media Server by plexinc installed and all is working fine, but this morning I had a message that there is a update available for Plex. when I click on it I get a DEB file, but I am not sure what to do with it, can someone informed me on the right procedure to update my Plex.

thanks for the reply. but I am sad to report that I am still getting an error pre-conversion: Preset = myh264 /config/hooks/pre_conversion.sh: line 43: syntax error: unexpected newline (expecting ")") [autovideoconverter] Pre-conversion hook exited with 2

Djoss.

@Communuity Developer one question. I just added the code to my pre_conversion.sh file and kicked off a converestion. was looking at the log file I saw this this error going through /config/hooks/pre_conversion.sh: line 44: syntax error: unexpected end of file (expecting ";;") is it something I need to be concern about. as I have had a look at the code, and with my very limited knowledge of coding this looks ok.

@Community Developer thanks for the code. I will give it a try.

thanks for the advice, I have looked at the pre_conversion.sh.example file and I can't make head or tails of it, I have also tried to find examples or tutorial on it, but I can't. can you please point me to a good source of information on how to use the hooks.

You can see the progress in the container's log. On the Docker page, click the icon in the last column. are we talking about the Activity Icon ? yes some of the files that I am download are MKV files which when Handbrake try's to convert are failing, and I would like to excluded them, also any NFO, Jpegs, Gifs, Txt, Thumbnails etc. only files like AVI, Mp4,

Opps sorry, typeO. yes I did mean MKV.
