Plex cannot scan rclone mounted folder (gdrive) #223

Hi there! It's me again :)
I have some weird behaviors lately (maybe past year).
My setting is:

  • media files are on google drive
  • I use rclone from gooby to share them with containers
  • I have plex installed and working

Now I have weird beheviors:

  1. from time to time I lost "my recently added items" on plex. It's like plex is not correctly determining the date of google drive files mounted through gooby. I checked the files dates and they are all ok.
  2. in the music library, sometimes it rescan the entire lib, as if the parent folder was updated. I suspect it does the same in other libs as well and this is why I lost the recently added items. But in some cases, it just cannot see some sub folders. Some times it also fails to see any files. But if I go through /mnt/google/ and I navigate to a specific sub folder by hand, the search agent finally finds it. REALLY WEIRD :)

So I guess there must some kind of misconfiguration with rclone mount which f up the system, but i am not sure what...
