I maybe have a stupid question. I have moved from using the plex plugin to using plex in docker. the problem I am having is that the thumbnails for my videos are not generating on the plex docker version?
have tried to follow the offical plex guide but that didnt help.:
https://support.plex.tv/articl…video-preview-thumbnails/
the oddest thing was that it worked nicely after a reinstall of the image but then I got thrown off the server and had to make a new serven that didnt generation thumbnails.
so maybe it is a hardware issue?
the data is on 2 HHD, the /transcode, /data and /config is on a usb stick. the HDD was very noisy if they had those folders so that is the reason. the PUID and PGID is both set to 1000.
I am running it on a Rock64pro 4gb ram.
I read here that one solution could be that the Plex is not running in root? but I am not sure if that is a possibly if it is install from docker

I also found this article about forcing plex to create thumbnails but I am not sure if I am doing it wrong (I probably am)

I could copy the code below into the "run cmd" button in docket but it just fail.
but in the forum the author also mention "Adjusting for your section number of course" so should the "section 1" below be changed to the name of the folder that need to be scanned ?
but I hope someone can help me since I am getting desperate.
thanks.
