blu3_v2 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Thanks for the explanation, glad to hear that those permission changes were by design. Now i can try and narrow down the cause of my Plex issue. Quote Link to comment
NotYetRated Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Hello, Wondering where all of the cache data etc gets stored using this repository. Is it in the docker itself, or in the mapped /config folder? Currently running on a windows VM. Just looking to see how I should approach installing and migrating to this docker. My library is quite big, and my cache is 15 or so gigs right now, will only get larger, especially when I add in my music collection. Also, is /mnt/user/appdata cache'd? Or am I better off setting to /mnt/cache/appdata? Quote Link to comment

They must have just recently updated the version for Plex pass only users. For the longest while, the Plex pass and non Plex pass ones were the same version. Quote Link to comment
Dimtar Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Can the Bittorrent Sync docker be updated soon please? I did try the official docker but it doesn't work. Quote Link to comment
Ockingshay Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Limetech, is there a plan to update the plex docker, so that those of us with plexpass can choose to install it? Currently plexpass is 2 versions ahead of the general release and by it's very nature will have new features added to it first. It doesn't matter if not as i will use another person's docker, but i don't know how hard it is to swap docker authors and didn't want to start looking into it if you are going to update your docker sooner, rather than later. Thanks Quote Link to comment
gtroyp Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I have installed the Sync Docker, but cannot access the UI. Going to the address (server:8888) I get an "invalid request" page, and nothing else. Is this a settings problem or is the docker foobar'ed? Quote Link to comment

I've found that using the default /mnt/user/appdata folder prefix would never work. Changing it to /mnt/cache/appdata would allow the GUIs to load properly. Quote Link to comment
sunnyville Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Quote from the Plex Website: "Plex Media Server 0.9.12.13 is now available for all users" I used to use iOS Photo Sync. I can't do that with the current version of Plex available via the repository. Could you please add the current version? Thank you! Quote Link to comment

I hadn't thought about a browser problem (haven't had one of those in a while.) But, Firefox opened it right up. Looking on the Developer's console with Safari, it had errors related to plugins. I will see if running without those Safari can open it. EDIT: Problem confirmed limited to Safari. Chrome and Firefox access UI without problem. Extensions in Safari don't seem to be problem, will keep checking.... Quote Link to comment
msteger Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Hi All, I just switched to this Plex docker and it works but when SABNzbd is doing it's thing Plex experiences "Dropouts" where the player says "the server doesn't have enough......." and stops. This didn't happen before I moved plex from the official Unraid version on the plex web page to the docker. Is there any way to give one docker priority over another? During an unpacking event the CPU usage according to the Unraid dashboard is 50 to 70 percent. The machine it runs on is a Sandy Bridge Core I7 with nothing else running but Unraid and dockers (no VM's). I love Plex in the docker, so much easier to restart and upgrade but I am thinking of going back to the old way if there is not way to prevent the playback issues. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 "the server doesn't have enough......." what's the rest of that line? Beyond that, since this is happening while Sab is unpacking or something, then you best course of action is to pin Sab to certain cores instead of leaving it access to everything so that it doesn't steal all the CPU cycles available.

See http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=36257.msg337500#msg337500 Hello, Thanks for your response, to answer the question, it doesn't have enough CPU (I Think). Plex stops and buffers when SABNZD is unpacking. Thanks for the advice on the cpu pinning, I tried this in the "Extra Parameters" --cpuset-cpus 6,7 for the SABNZD docker. It doesn't seem to help all of the CPU's still look utilized with the system doing nothing else. The system is a Core i7 2600K so it should have plenty of power. Any other ideas on how to limit SABNZD? Even the Unraid web interface is slow when it unpacks. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 There's another option to limit the number of cpu "slices" each container has access to (ie: limit the container to 50% cpu). Have to get back to you on that option. But you may also be running into bottlenecks from your choice of hard drives, controllers, and nic. Especially if the movie youre trying to watch is on the cache drive while the system is reading the rar files and writing the mkv to the cache. Quote Link to comment

Medwynd Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 I would like to add an agent to Plex to import from nfo files instead of the agents listed. All of my movies are currently cataloged using MyMovies (http://www.mymovies.dk/) which can export nfo data and, in my opinion, has much better data and covers than the available sources. That said, I am trying to add these plugins to Plex using the limetech docker for PMS: https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/38402/metadata-agents-for-exported-xbmc-library/p1 The instructions state to: User MattJ from the plex forum reported the following steps to install on ubuntu 14.04: - Download from github and unzip - Remove "-master" from the end of both folder names. - Copy them to the folder: /var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins - Find the group number for user "plex" by command "id plex". - "cd" to folder in step 3 and change ownership of both XBMC bundles: "sudo chown plex:{gid} XBMC*" - run "sudo service plexmediaserver restart". Done. I have copied the bundles to /mnt/cache/appdata/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins via the /cache share that I can see on my windows machine. When I navigate to that path on my unraid server, I see no files. So my questions are: Am I copying these files over incorrectly/why can I not see them? Has anyone else tried to accomplish this before? Does anyone forsee any other installation problems trying to get plugins installed inside the limetech PMS docker? Quote Link to comment
ajgoyt Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Hello I am having an issue with the official Limetech plex media server, It installed perfect and runs ok and i am logged into the server and online the problem is when i try to add content i can see what appears to be my shared folders but when i click on the MNT folder none of my drives or shares show. I am running the latest 6.1.6 , with Plex server 9.14.6 , I have attached a screen shot showing the issue! any ideas on what i am doing wrong? - it appears that the server browse is only pointing inside the CACHE drive? thanks AJ Quote Link to comment
Dimtar Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 @ajgoyt, what drives mappings do you have for the Docker? Quote Link to comment
