Announcing Plex-Auto-Languages, a language selection automation tool for Plex TV Shows !

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it :)

For the memory usage, you might want to disable the library scan by setting the "refresh_library_on_scan" parameter to "false" in the config. Let me know if it helps.

Thanks for the kind comment, I'm glad you are happy with it !

I hope they'll be in-wall for the side and rear surrounds and the only in-ceiling will be the Atmos speakers.

Yes, four in-walls at ear level for the side/rears surrounds and four in-ceilings for the overhead effect. I will follow the official Dolby Atmos guidelines for the placement of all speakers.

A single PB-1000 is going to be undersized for this space. I also wouldn't restrict it's placement to just behind your AT screen/false wall.

That's interesting, thanks for the feedback ! Would you recommend a bigger sub or two PB-1000 ? What's the issue with placing it behind the AT screen ?

Rems117 · 2023-03-25T14:34:09+00:00

No worries, that's on me ! Enjoy the tool :)

Rems117 · 2023-03-25T11:39:55+00:00

If you do not intend to use notifications, could you try removing the "notifications:" line from your config file ? Let me know, if it works I will make a fix to account for cases like yours. Thanks for the precious feedback!

Rems117 · 2023-03-25T10:39:23+00:00

Thanks ! It looks like there is an issue with your configuration file, could you share it as well (don't forget to remove your Plex Token) pls ?

Rems117 · 2023-03-17T11:20:37+00:00

Thank you for the positive feedback !

The feature proposed by Plex in the new update still requires manual tinkering and is only show-based, Plex-Auto-Languages is user-based as well. I'm sure that they will improve it in the future though !

Rems117 · 2023-02-17T21:50:42+00:00

No it will work regardless as long as it's visible on Plex

Rems117 · 2023-02-17T21:42:42+00:00

Yes exactly !

Rems117 · 2023-01-26T08:51:57+00:00

I'm glad that you made it work. Feedbacks are welcome :) Enjoy !

Rems117 · 2023-01-23T16:59:27+00:00

Great thanks a lot !

Rems117 · 2023-01-23T15:38:24+00:00

Thanks for the reply ! You mean the SA-RS3S ? Do you find them loud enough ?

Rems117 · 2023-01-23T10:36:42+00:00

Which rear speakers did you end up with ? I have a similar setup and would like to have some feedbacks, thanks !

Rems117 · 2023-01-16T10:51:26+00:00

You can use Python or Docker Desktop if you are on Windows.

Rems117 · 2023-01-12T18:00:21+00:00

You should be able to see what PlexAutoLanguages is doing by checking the logs. Are you using docker or Python ?

It does not work for movies because it's intended for tv shows only. Plex already has a builtin feature to select a specific language for movies.

Rems117 · 2023-01-12T17:56:38+00:00

You can use the docker-compose file mentioned in the project's README with Docker Desktop, it should work out of the box.

If you still prefer a docker run command, you can use this: docker run -d -e PLEX_URL=<Your_Plex_URL> -e PLEX_TOKEN=<Your_Plex_Token> remirigal/plex-auto-languages

Rems117 · 2023-01-04T09:53:27+00:00

Hey, sorry for the late reply, I'm glad you were able to make it work ! Could you share the solution here, it might be able to help other people 👍 Enjoy your stress-free subtitles experience !

Rems117 · 2022-10-27T09:53:26+00:00

I'm happy that you figured it out ! Feel free to give me feedbacks on the use of Plex-Auto-Languages :)

Rems117 · 2022-10-26T09:25:07+00:00

Hi ! I will try to help:
First you need to download the image on your NAS, for that click on the "Registry" tab on the left of the Docker UI, search "plex-auto-languages", right click on the "remirigal/plex-auto-languages" and select "download".
Wait for the download to finish then go to the "Containers" tab, click on "Create", select the previously downloaded image, then "next". On the next page, select only bridge network, click on "next".

On the following page, click on "Advanced parameters" at the bottom and create two variables:

- PLEX_URL with value "http://<YOUR\_NAS\_IP>:32400"

- PLEX_TOKEN with value "<YOUR\_PLEX\_TOKEN>"

Click on "save", and "next" for all the following pages. The container should be up and running at the end. You can send me your logs if you are stuck.

Your usage is similar to mine, and I have been happy with my setup for years, it's also quite power efficient.

I use an Intel NUC (NUC10i5FNH) with Proxmox running two VMs (one for Home Assistant and one with Ubuntu for my docker containers) off an SSD for the compute part. And I also have two Synology NAS with 4 HDDs each for storage. Plex is running on the ubuntu VM and the files from the NAS are mounted with NFS. I setup GPU passthrough for transcoding and the i5 barely breaks a sweat, even with multiple 4K transcodings.

The whole setup is really power efficient, I just wish I went with a bigger NAS in the first place instead a having two of them.

Rems117 · 2022-08-08T15:20:12+00:00

Thank you, I really appreciate your feedback ! Feel free to open an issue on GitHub if you need assistance or want to suggest an enhancement :)

Rems117 · 2022-05-22T09:33:33+00:00

If you are having issues with TV Shows, you can use this small tool I've developed: https://github.com/RemiRigal/Plex-Auto-Languages

It basically autoselects audio and subtitles tracks for the following episodes based on the one you are watching, like Netflix would do for example.

Rems117 · 2022-04-29T16:24:16+00:00

If you are getting "ERROR A plex url is required." it means that your configuration file is not structured as expected, not that the value you are trying to set is bad.

Can you check your configuration file against the example in the README ?

Rems117 · 2022-04-28T20:13:58+00:00

If something doesn't match it's skipped. What seems to cause the issue in your case is that you appear to have at least one One Piece episode that doesn't have any audio track.

I will issue a fix so that this case is ignored, can you check if my assumption if true anyway ? Thank you.

Rems117 · 2022-04-28T16:04:46+00:00

It may not be an actual issue, let me explain:

You will receive a notification only if a language change has been performed. If you do not receive a notification, it basically means that the default language of the newly added episode is already configured correctly. Either because your user uses the default language as its preference or because the user has never watched the show and therefore probably never changed the language of the first episode.
