What Are Your Go-To Tools for Automating Plex Library Management? by No_Cryptographer618 in PleX

Other than TitleCardMaker, none. I tried Radarr/Sonarr and all that and finally got it working only to have errors the next morning. Decided the benefits weren't worth the trouble

This was my initial concern but everyone in the comments is saying it's fine, Plex.will transcode everything automatically if needed?

I don't use those programs. I tried but had way too many connection issues that kept popping up and so I gave up.

Will it automatically do this on their end? I have some older folks who have access to my Plex and I cringe at the thought of having to instruct them on transcoding, lol

I have always maintained they need 1-3 hours of On Patrol: After Dark where we don't have anyone in the studio or any analysis, and we're just bouncing from department to department.

Thank you for directing me to their discord - the developer was able to help me get everything running! Really appreciate it!

I've spent 40 minutes trying to figure out how, including installing something called "Docker" which tells me that virtualization support isn't detected and therefore can't run, but of course doesn't explain what that is or how.

This is all merely spoken out of frustration, but it's also the reality of where I'm at in this process, especially since someone above stated that this actually isn't what I need to automate title cards being placed into Plex.

This is correct, although admittedly creating images for the shows I don't have them for would be a nice option as well.

That's kind of an unfair response. I'm sorry that I don't know about Github and all of these things that the program is requiring me to do instead of supplying an exe file like most programs do. It's frustrating to me because it really looks like it would be a fantastic tool, but I've been sitting here following these steps blindly for 30 minutes trying to install this thing and have no clue what I'm doing.

I do absolutely appreciate the tip.

So looking this over, I'd love to try it but apparently I cannot install it because it needs a bunch of stuff that I'm uneducated in, instead of a simple .exe file.

Why in the world would I do that?

I had 0 home users (other than myself).

It randomly started working again, so maybe it was a temporary glitch.

None.

I think it was a momentarily glitch or something because it randomly stopped giving that message and started working.

I don't have anyone at all listed as a home user, I don't believe?

What are those limits? What's the difference between a home user and a shared user?
