Setup the system to mount the RAM disk on every boot Open in your browser and configure your server.You can keep ghost references to the mount points by adding -ghost in auto.master at the end of the appended line Autofs will automatically unmount all mount points if there is no access within 5 minutes and remount if you try to access the mount point.Append all your mount points at the end of the file, for example:Īll your mount points are now available at /data/.Create Autofs configuration file for data directory.Append the following line at the end of the file:.By default the plex repository source from the package is disabled (commented out), enable it in /etc/apt//plexmediaserver.listĬreate mount directory and configure Autofs.During installation you will be asked if you want to override the plex repository source with the one from the package.sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get install avahi-daemon avahi-utils plexmediaserver.echo deb public main | sudo tee /etc/apt//plexmediaserver.list.It downloads the metadata, but then just decides not to use it.Ĭan anyone who has encountered a similar behavior provide some insight into what they did to resolve it? It pretends like 3 of the 4 groups that this artist has been a member of don't exist. Then I refreshed my whole music database. I went back to check, and the album was back under 'Devin Townsend' and the changes I had made were reversed.Īt this point, I figured that this was being caused by the metadata in the files themselves, so I went and modified them all, swapping the 'Artist' and 'Album Artist' (which is what I understand Plex uses). and then immediately downloaded the meta data for 'Devin Townsend'. I looked at the Alerts logs in Plex, and it downloaded the meta data for Strapping Young Lad, updated it. However, when I went to check, the new artist wasn't created. This seemed to work, as the album disappeared from list of the 'Devin Townsend' albums. I first tried to modify the 'Artist' on one of the albums in Plex from 'Devin Townsend' to 'Strapping Young Lad'. However, no matter what I do, Plex always collapse all of the various groups under a singular artist as 'Devin Townsend'. Specifically:Įach of these are separate collectives, and each should be it's own 'artist' with it's own discography.

He's a prolific man that has released material with a number of different distinct bands.

I'm a fan of the musical artist Devin Townsend.
