Do you know how I get plex to see the encrypted drive? I tried to select the encrypted drive as a library in the plex media server on my pc and it can add it but it doesn't see any of the files, which I imagine is because they are encrypted? So I think I need to do something else to make it work with plex but I don't know what to do next!
Is there a guide on how to do that? I did try a search but came back to the cache beta page which you said I should avoid.
I will need to go offline now as I have family stuff to take care of tonight but I will come back tomorrow and try again to get this sorted. I really, really appreciate your help with this and the time you have spend replying to me when I am so clearly clueless!
Thanks for all your help yesterday. It seems to be working now, not sure why it didn't work last night, I reinstalled plex so perhaps that helped. I used the rclone mount guide above to mount the remote crypt to my pc as the x drive so like this:
rclone mount secret: X: and it showed up under this pc in windows as another drive secret (X:).
I was then able to add the folder with my test media to plex as a new library and then the test media appeared in plex. It took about 20 seconds to load up and I'm guessing the lag is due to the encryption. Another odd thing is that the film was only 12 minutes long but showed on plex as being 2 hours long - not sure why that is or if it is important. I tried it directly from the drive unencrypted and it streamed much faster and with no errors in its runtime as displayed in plex.
I do have some other questions such as how to keep my remote crypt mapped to my pc after I reboot so that I don't have to map it manually every time I want to use it and also how to best upload and organise files and folders within the crypt, can I upload whole folders at a time?
I also wonder is it possible to have more than one drive mapped at a time?
Anyway, I will do some reading and see if I can figure it out. Again I really appreciate your help Asddfdsa / Jojo.
Hi, Yes it is working which is amazing! I can just copy into the x drive and it shows up encrypted in my gdrive! It then streams back to plex great!
I am now trying to set up the task scheduler so that that X: will just be there on start up but I am struggling. Could you post exactly what you have in the actions box?
to test if the task works, you can run it via task scheduler.
you do not need to reboot each time
you might want to add this flag, as it can speed up uploads to the mount. --vfs-cache-mode=writes
Hi thanks for replying, how do I get the batch file, is it from rclone?
Sorry I didn't even see the error code, I will look it up.
Yeah I am reusing what you posted, I thought that was what I had to do?
I will change the setting you mentioned (run only when user is logged on) but it didn't work when I pressed run in task scheduler to test. My username is blanked out because I have it set to my actual name? I guess that's a problem?
