Google Photos: Consistent 404 Not Found for certain video files

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

  • Consistent 404 Not Found for certain video files (same 83 each time I run command)
  • These videos are searchable within WebGUI of Google Photos using exact match on the filename.
  • These files were added to the Album and my photo library via Partner Sharing
  • However other video also added by same process were synced no problem

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
