Empty library error #628
Comments
Add something manually, I added a sample mp4 and renamed it in a format plex would see as a movie. You can remove it after. You can also run the scraper option 4 when you launch the python script to manually add an item. "plex_debrid cannot destinguish between a truly empty library and a library that couldnt be reached because its offline (or not reachable for any other reason). In order to avoid unwanted behaviour, the script simply stops running whenever an empty library is encountered. You will need to manually add at least one media item to the libraries visible by plex_debrid, before the download automation can run savely." |
I got it working. Thanks. |
How did you fix the issue? [24/01/24 07:40:41] [plex error]: couldnt reach local plex library section '1' at server address: http://192.168.1.218:32400 - or this library really is empty. |
I also tried to create a dummy file by doing: touch test.mov |
@kgc35 you need to name it in a format plex will scan and add to library I.e Batman Begins (2005).mp4 |
And don’t touch into the mounted drive, add it to another folder and temporarily add that as a path in your plex library settings |
[29/01/24 21:46:21] [plex] getting plex library section/s "Filmes RD","Séries RD" ... done Can someone please help me ? I´ve manually add files to the folders but i get yhe same error. |
[29/01/24 21:49:06] [plex] item: "Ferrari" found in Joao_Resende`s watchlist |
Anyone ? |
You only have one empty library, the 3rd one you added. Is this folder actually there ? If so add a movie manually in the plex format so plex will see the video |
Use option 4 in plex-debrid to download something small. A regular movie is fine 720p. Keep in mind that this means that your library will need to maintain at least 1 movie in the folder, otherwise you will run into this same issue again. |
Is there a time frame for how long it should take to pull in content? I'm doing everything on my WIndows 11 comp, not connecting to a NAS, added a single file to each folder that's already recognized from the local storage, and I'm scraping 1337 and torrentio, but I get zilch in either library. |
It should just take like 30-60 seconds from adding the video file to Plex finding it in the debrid folder |
When running, I get the following output with 0 updates:
|
And you follow the directions for adding your plex account and you added movies to your plex watch list? |
I'm going to start from scratch just in case. I'm concerned that my plex token might be wrong. |
Maybe create a Trakt account, add it to plex debris and add something to your Trakt watch list and see if that works. If it works then it must be something with your plex user or token. |
You have to add the movie to the normal watchlist specifically |
Plex debrid is working, from your log it shows it's grabbing the movies. I know some people have this issue and they have to manually add a movie to the debrid service and scan the folder on plex and see if it reads it |
I think you might have mounted the folder. |
Should I instead select just X:\ and see if it sorts on its own? ALso, thank you for your hella fast response and for humouring me ;) |
I meant I think you might have mounted the folder wrong. |
Do these steps again:
|
I'm not using Docker. This is a plain'ole Windows install |
Than that's your issue. This whole plex debrid runs on docker. Plex needs to run on docker. I was assuming you were running this on a synology. The guide I wrote is specifically for synology and docker. |
The Windows guide just above the docker guidance doesn't specify that super clearly. So I need to follow the Windows guidance, then install Docker and follow the Docker guidance? |
I haven't done it on windows so not sure. |
I'll see if I can break somethin ;) |
Just follow the Windows guide. I think the windows guide does not use Docker. The guide I wrote is specifically for Synology NAS and Docker so I can't really help you with windows. |
I get the same error message, anyone actually know what to fix? |
I started from scratch. Took like 10 minutes to get set back up, but the nuclear option worked for me ;p My libraries don't refresh as fast as I'd like, but that's probably just some settings with Plex that I need to adjust. |
I tried a whole new install of ubuntu, went through the steps all over again with fresh install of everything. Same problems, the one video file i have in my library shows up but wont play and gives me a s1001 network error. Im burnt. |
I got it running on my Synology NAS and set it up with Plex and Trakt but whenever I run plex_debrid and use the RUN option I get this:
