Hi there,
I'm aware there is a guide to do that at this address, however it has not worked for me so far, so i'm wondering if there was an issue proper to Seagate blocking this from working or something of the kind. Note will custom titles and modifications i've made to artists names seems to have been kept, no custom cover has been (pretty obvious on an audiobooks library).
Here's how I proceeded:
- Copied all the library data over from 1 NAS to 2nd, same folder & same share
- Deactivated the Emptying of Trash on source server
- I tarballed in my home dir the folder /media/internal_1/rainbow/plexmediaserver-xxxx.data/plex_conf/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server
- Transferred it to my new NAS on which I've setup a raw plex app (not connected to any account yet) which I then stopped
- Expanded my tar in the very same directory, in which I replaced the Plug_ins dir with the one from the fresh setup
- Made sure all folders and files are owned by root - was like this on previous NAS.
- Rebooted the NAS
- Started Plex again
- Plex detects a new server is available, and shows me the contents with already missing covers behind the terms, before asking me to login.
- From here i've tried different things from going with or closing down the page asking to review your libraries info and scan them in the local app or in the webapp... the custom covers are missing and I haven't found a way to get them back.
Any help would be much appreciated... what am I doing wrong?
Can it be because the path is exactly the same on the new NAS than on the old?
Cheers~
