Upgrade script to invoke new Plex Music Scanner

Open justinglock40 opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Describe the problem Current iteration of script can not use Plex Music(new version with musicbrainz) as a scanner only has the ability to invoke Plex Music Scanner (old version)

Describe any solutions you think might work Not sure how to fix just asking for it to be looked into. Maybe it can be a couple lines of code change to invoke the new scanner?

Additional context PAS only works with Plex Music Scanner, Not Plex Music.

If you can provide me with an example CLI command that successfully scans a path I can certainly look into it.

I have previously and came up empty handed, see thread on plex forums:

Just for good measure I replied to the topic too. Too bad they "forgot" to implement the option on the command line. For someone that is now building a new library, the full scans are so much annoying... it hurts!

Ya. I see it’s a bigger issue now. It’s crazy that it’s not accessible via CLI

I've tried to resurrect this unanswered issue with Plex.
