Timelord1969 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Hey gang, I am not sure if this should be in the presales area or here, as I am not yet a customer (running a trial). So, I have a remote server that has my plex content, that I now want to have on my unraid box. Is there a plugin or something that can monitor the remote directory, and have it auto-download any new content? Hope that makes sense. Quote Link to comment

Hope that makes sense.You can use syncthing or resillio sync that's how I get stuff on my seedbox over to my unraid automatically. You can run as a docker and they can be set to monitor for changes. I use it to backup my photos from my phone to my unraid server as well.Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
Timelord1969 Posted April 21, 2022 Author Share Posted April 21, 2022 Thanks @klipp01. Which one is the easiest to setup for a relative n00b. I am doing the same thing, trying to et content from a SB to my unraid. Does either of those apps do it automatically? i.e when a new file is added, it is autodownloaded? Quote Link to comment

Sometimes if the app stops running in the background on your smart phone you may need to relaunch it.I liked syncthing there is a video spaceinvaderone has that shows how to set it up. I started using it for transfers from my seedbox to my unraid server. Then I started using it to backup certain folders on my smartphone. I stopped using it because I think my ISP was throttling downloads to my unraid when I used syncthing. Transfers were slowing to a crawl and I couldn't get it resolved. So I moved to resillio-sync and so far haven't had slow transfer issues. It was pretty easy to setup. There is a pro version but I'm using the free version.Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
