Introduction

Autoscan is a python script that assists in the importing of Sonarr, Radarr, and Lidarr downloads into Plex and/or Jellyfin/Emby.

It does this by creating a web server to accept webhook requests from these apps, and in turn, sends a scan request to media servers. Plex will then only scan the parent folder (i.e. season folder for TV shows, movie folder for movies, and album folders for music) of the media file (versus scanning the entire library folder). For Jellyfin/Emby, whole library will be scanned.

In addition to the above, Autoscan can also monitor Google Drive for updates. When a new file is detected, it is checked against the Plex database and if this file is missing, a new scan request is sent to Plex and/or Jellyfin/Emby ( see section below).

Autoscan is installed on the same server as the Plex and/or Jellyfin/Emby.

Requirements

Any OS that supports Python 3 or higher.

Installation

Ubuntu/Debian

cd /opt
sudo git clone https://github.com/niniyas/autoscan
sudo chown -R user:group autoscan - Run id to find your user / group.
cd autoscan
sudo python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python scan.py sections for Plex or python scan.py jesections for Jellyfin/Emby.- Run once to generate a default config.json file.
Edit /opt/autoscan/config/config.json - Configure settings (do this before moving on).
Edit /opt/autoscan/system/autoscan.service - Change two instances of YOUR_USER to your user and group ( do this before moving on).
sudo cp /opt/autoscan/system/autoscan.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable autoscan.service
sudo systemctl start autoscan.service

Docker

Pulling ghcr.io/niniyas/autoscan:latest should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

Architecture	Tag
x86-64	amd64
arm64	arm64

Docker Compose

version: "3.9"
services:
  autoscan:
    container_name: Autoscan
    image: ghcr.io/niniyas/autoscan:latest
    volumes:
      - /path/to/data:/config
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock # needed if you are running plex in docker.
      - /path/to/plexdb:/plexDb
    ports:
      - "3468:3468/tcp"
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - UMASK=002
      - TZ=Europe/Brussels

Docker CLI

docker run -d \
    --name=Autoscan \
    -e PUID=1000 \
    -e PGID=1000 \
    -e UMASK=002 \
    -e TZ=Europe/Brussels \
    -p 3468:3468/tcp \
    -v /path/to/data:/config \
    -v /path/to/plexdb:/plexDb \
    -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    ghcr.io/niniyas/autoscan:latest

In most cases you'll need to add additional volumes, to access your files.

Windows

Note: It's recommended that you install rclone and Python using chocolatey.

Configuration

Note: Changes to config file require a restart of the Autoscan service ( e.g. sudo systemctl restart autoscan.service in Ubuntu).

Example

You can find example config files for both Windows and Ubuntu/Debian in config folder.

Basics

"USE_SUDO": true,

USE_SUDO - This option is typically used in conjunction with PLEX_USER (e.g. sudo -u plex). Default is true.

The user that runs utoscan needs to be able to sudo without a password, otherwise it cannot execute the PLEX_SCANNER command as plex. If the user cannot sudo without password, set this option to false.
If the user that runs Autoscan is able to run the PLEX_SCANNER command without sudo or is installed with the same user account (e.g. plex), you can you can set this to false.

Docker

Docker specific options.

Note: Some Docker examples used below are based on the image by plexinc/pms-docker, with /config/ in the container path mapped to /opt/plex/ on the host. Obvious differences are mentioned between PlexInc and LSIO images.

"USE_DOCKER": true,
"DOCKER_NAME": "plex",

USE_DOCKER - Set to true when Plex is in a Docker container. Default is false.

DOCKER_NAME - Name of the Plex docker container. Default is "plex".

Plex Media Server

Plex Media Server options.

Plex Basics

"ENABLE_PLEX": true,
"PLEX_USER": "plex",
"PLEX_TOKEN": "abcdefghijkl",
"PLEX_LOCAL_URL": "http://localhost:32400",
"PLEX_CHECK_BEFORE_SCAN": false,
"PLEX_WAIT_FOR_EXTERNAL_SCANNERS": true,
"PLEX_ANALYZE_TYPE": "basic",
"PLEX_ANALYZE_DIRECTORY": true,
"PLEX_FIX_MISMATCHED": false,
"PLEX_FIX_MISMATCHED_LANG": "en",

ENABLE_PLEX - Enable or disable Plex

PLEX_USER - User account that Plex runs as. This only gets used when either USE_SUDO or USE_DOCKER is set to true.

Native Install: User account (on the host) that Plex runs as.
Docker Install: User account within the container. Depends on the Docker image being used.
- plexinc/pms-docker: "plex"
- linuxserver/plex: "abc"
Default is "plex".

PLEX_TOKEN - Plex Access Token. This is used for checking Plex's status, emptying trash, or analyzing media.

Run the Plex token script by Werner Beroux: plex_token.sh

or
Read article from Plex Support.

PLEX_LOCAL_URL - URL of the Plex Media Server. Can be localhost or http/https address.

Examples:
- "http://localhost:32400" (native install; docker with port 32400 exposed)
- "https://plex.domain.com" (custom domain with reverse proxy enabled)

PLEX_CHECK_BEFORE_SCAN - When set to false, autoscan will not check if plex is reachable. Default is true.

PLEX_WAIT_FOR_EXTERNAL_SCANNERS - When set to true, wait for other Plex Media Scanner processes to finish, before launching a new one.

For hosts running a single Plex Docker instance, this can be left as true.
For multiple Plex Docker instances on a host, set this as false.

PLEX_ANALYZE_TYPE - How Plex will analyze the media files that are scanned. Options are off, basic, deep. off will disable analyzing. Default is basic.

PLEX_ANALYZE_DIRECTORY - When set to true, Plex will analyze all the media files in the parent folder (e.g. movie folder, season folder) vs just the newly added file. Default is true.

PLEX_FIX_MISMATCHED - When set to true, Autoscan will attempt to fix an incorrectly matched item in Plex.

Autoscan will compare the TVDBID/TMDBID/IMDBID sent by Sonarr/Radarr with what Plex has matched with, and if this match is incorrect, it will autocorrect the match on the item (movie file or TV episode). If the incorrect match is a duplicate entry in Plex, it will auto split the original entry before correcting the match on the new item.
This only works when 1) requests come from Sonarr/Radarr, 2) season folders are being used, and 3) all movies and TV shows have their own unique paths.
Default is false.

PLEX_FIX_MISMATCHED_LANG - What language to use for TheTVDB agent in Plex.

Default is "en".

Plex File Locations

Note: Verify the settings below by running the Plex Section IDs command (see below).

"PLEX_LD_LIBRARY_PATH": "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib",
"PLEX_SCANNER": "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\\ Media\\ Scanner",
"PLEX_SUPPORT_DIR": "/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application\\ Support",
"PLEX_DATABASE_PATH": "/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-in Support/Databases/com.plexapp.plugins.library.db",

PLEX_LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Native Install:
- "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib"
Docker Install: Path within the container. Depends on the image being used.
- plexinc/pms-docker: "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib"
- linuxserver/plex: "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib"

PLEX_SCANNER - Location of Plex Media Scanner binary.

Native Install:
- "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\\ Media\\ Scanner"
Docker Install: Path within the container. Depends on the image being used.
- plexinc/pms-docker: "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\\ Media\\ Scanner"
- linuxserver/plex: "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\\ Media\\ Scanner"

PLEX_SUPPORT_DIR - Location of Plex "Application Support" path.

Native Install:
- "/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application\\ Support"
Docker Install: Path within the container. Depends on the image being used.
- plexinc/pms-docker: "/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application\\ Support"
- linuxserver/plex: "/config/Library/Application\\ Support"

PLEX_DATABASE_PATH - Location of Plex library database.

Native Install:
- "/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-in Support/Databases/com.plexapp.plugins.library.db"
Docker Install: If Autoscan is running directly on the host, this will be the path on the host. If Autoscan is running inside a Plex container, this will be a path within the container.

Plex Section IDs

Running the following command, will return a list of Plex Library Names and their corresponding Section IDs (sorted by alphabetically Library Name):

python scan.py sections

This will be in the format of:

SECTION ID #: LIBRARY NAME
-----------
Path

Sample output:

Plex Sections:
==============

1) Movies
------------
/media/Movies/

Plex Emptying Trash

When media is upgraded by Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr, the previous files are then deleted. When Plex gets the scan request after the upgrade, the new media is added in to the library, but the previous media files would still be listed there but labeled as "unavailable".

To remedy this, a trash emptying command needs to be sent to Plex to get rid of these missing files from the library. The options below enable that to happen.

  "PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH": true,
  "PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH_CONTROL_FILES": [
    "/mnt/unionfs/mounted.bin"
  ],
  "PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH_MAX_FILES": 100,
  "PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH_ZERO_DELETED": true

PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH - When set to true, empty trash of a section after a scan.

PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH_CONTROL_FILES - Only empty trash when this file exists. Useful when media files, located elsewhere, is mounted on the Plex Server host. Can be left blank if not needed.

PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH_MAX_FILES - The maximum amount of missing files to remove from Plex at one emptying trash request. If there are more missing files than the number listed, the emptying trash request is aborted. This is particularly useful when externally mounted media temporarily dismounts and a ton of files go "missing" in Plex. Default is 100.

PLEX_EMPTY_TRASH_ZERO_DELETED - When set to true, Autoscan will always empty the trash on the scanned section, even if there are 0 missing files. If false, trash will only be emptied when the database returns more than 0 deleted items. Default is false.

Jellyfin/Emby

Basics

"ENABLE_JOE": false
"JELLYFIN_EMBY": "jellyfin",
"JOE_API_KEY": "",
"JOE_HOST": "http://localhost:8096"

ENABLE_JOE - Enable or Disable Jellyfin/Emby.

JELLYFIN_EMBY - Type of server, jellyfin or emby.

JOE_API_KEY - Jellyfin/Emby API key. Make one at http://<jellyfinoremby_host>/web/index.html#/apikeys.html.

JOE_HOST - Jellyfin/Emby server url with no trailing slash.

Sections

Running the following command, will return a list of Jellyfin/Emby Library paths:

scan.py jesections

Autoscan Server

Basics

"SERVER_IP": "0.0.0.0",
"SERVER_PASS": "9c4b81fe234e4d6eb9011cefe514d915",
"SERVER_PORT": 3468,
"SERVER_SCAN_DELAY": 180,
"SERVER_USE_SQLITE": true

SERVER_IP - Server IP that Autoscan will listen on. Default is 0.0.0.0.

0.0.0.0 - Allow remote access (e.g. Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr running on another/remote server).
127.0.0.1 - Local access only.

SERVER_PORT - Port that Autoscan will listen on.

SERVER_PASS - Autoscan password. Used to authenticate requests from Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr. Default is a random 32 character string generated during config build.

Your webhook URL will look like: http://ipaddress:3468/server_pass (or http://localhost:3468/server_pass if local only).

SERVER_SCAN_DELAY - How long (in seconds) Autoscan will wait before sending a scan request to Plex.

This is useful, for example, when you want Autoscan to wait for more episodes of the same TV show to come in before scanning the season folder, resulting in less work for Plex to do by not scanning the same folder multiple times. This works especially well with SERVER_USE_SQLITE enabled.

SERVER_USE_SQLITE - Option to enable a database to store queue requests. Default is true.

The benefits to using this are:
1. Queue will be restored on Autoscan restart, and
2. Multiple requests to the same folder can be merged into a single folder scan.

Example log:

Already processing '/data/TV/TV-Anime/Persona 5 the Animation/Season 1/Persona 5 the Animation - s01e01 - I am thou, thou art I.mkv' from same folder, aborting adding an extra scan request to the queue.
Scan request from Sonarr for '/data/TV/TV-Anime/Persona 5 the Animation/Season 1/Persona 5 the Animation - s01e01 - I am thou, thou art I.mkv', sleeping for 180 seconds...

The 180 seconds in the example above are from the SERVER_SCAN_DELAY, if any more requests come in during this time, the scan request will be delayed by another 180 seconds.

Server - Path Mappings

List of paths that will be remapped before being scanned by Plex.

This is particularly useful when receiving scan requests, from a remote Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr installation, that has different paths for the media.

Native Install

Format:

"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/path/on/local/plex/host/": [ <--- Plex Library path
        "/path/on/sonarr/host/"  <--- Sonarr root path
    ]
},

Note: This format is used regardless of whether Sonarr is on the same server as Plex or not.

Example:

  "SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/mnt/unionfs/": [
      "/home/seed/media/fused/"
    ]
  },

Docker Install

Format:

"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/path/in/plex/container/":  [<--- Plex Library path
        "/path/from/sonarr/container/"  <--- Sonarr root path
    ]
},

Example:

  "SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/data/Movies/": [
      "/movies/"
    ]
  },

If the filepath that was reported to Autoscan by Radarr was /home/seed/media/fused/Movies/Die Hard/Die Hard.mkv then the path that would be scanned by Plex would be /mnt/unionfs/Movies/Die Hard/Die Hard.mkv.

Multiple Paths

You can also have more than one folder paths pointing to a single one.

Example:

  "SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/data/Movies/": [
      "/media/movies/",
      "/local/movies/"
    ]
  },

Server File Checks

After a SERVER_SCAN_DELAY, Autoscan will check to see if file exists before sending a scan request to Plex.

"SERVER_MAX_FILE_CHECKS": 10,
"SERVER_FILE_CHECK_DELAY": 60,
"SERVER_SCAN_FOLDER_ON_FILE_EXISTS_EXHAUSTION": false,

SERVER_MAX_FILE_CHECKS - The number specifies how many times this check will occur, before giving up. If set to 0, this check will not occur, and Autoscan will simply send the scan request after the SERVER_SCAN_DELAY. Default is 10.

SERVER_FILE_CHECK_DELAY - Delay in seconds between two file checks. Default is 60.

SERVER_SCAN_FOLDER_ON_FILE_EXISTS_EXHAUSTION - Autoscan will scan the media folder when the file exist checks (as set above) are exhausted. Default is false.

Server File Exists - Path Mappings

List of paths that will be remapped before file exist checks are done.

This is particularly useful when using Docker, since the folder being scanned by the Plex container, may be different to the path on the host system running Autoscan.

Format:

  "SERVER_FILE_EXIST_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/actual/path/on/host/": [
      "/path/from/plex/container/"
    ]
  },

Example:

  "SERVER_FILE_EXIST_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/mnt/unionfs/media/": [
      "/data/"
    ]
  },

You can leave this empty if it is not required:

"SERVER_FILE_EXIST_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
},

Misc

  "RUN_COMMAND_BEFORE_SCAN": "",
  "RUN_COMMAND_AFTER_SCAN": "",
  "SERVER_ALLOW_MANUAL_SCAN": false,
  "SERVER_IGNORE_LIST": [
    "/.grab/",
    ".DS_Store",
    "Thumbs.db"
  ],
  "SERVER_SCAN_PRIORITIES": {
    "1": [
      "/Movies/"
    ],
    "2": [
      "/TV/"
    ]
  },

RUN_COMMAND_BEFORE_SCAN - If a command is supplied, it is executed before the Plex Media Scanner command.

RUN_COMMAND_AFTER_SCAN - If a command is supplied, it is executed after the Plex Media Scanner, Empty Trash and Analyze commands.

SERVER_ALLOW_MANUAL_SCAN - When enabled, allows GET requests to the webhook URL to allow manual scans on a specific filepath. Default is false.

All path mappings and section ID mappings, of the server, apply.
This is also a good way of testing your configuration, manually.
To send a manual scan, you can either:
- Visit your webhook url in a browser (e.g. http://ipaddress:3468/0c1fa3c9867e48b1bb3aa055cb86), and fill in the path to scan.
  
  or
- Initiate a scan via HTTP (e.g. curl):
```
curl -d "eventType=Manual&filepath=/mnt/unionfs/Media/Movies/Shut In (2016)/Shut In (2016) - Bluray-1080p.x264.DTS-GECKOS.mkv" http://ipaddress:3468/0c1fa3c9867e48b1bb3aa055cb86`
```

SERVER_IGNORE_LIST - List of paths or filenames to ignore when a requests are sent to Autoscan manually (see above). Case sensitive.

For example:
- curl -d "eventType=Manual&filepath=/mnt/unionfs/Media/Movies/Thumbs.db" http://ipaddress:3468/0c1fa3c9867e48b1bb3aa055cb86 would be ignored if Thumbs.db was in the ignore list.

SERVER_SCAN_PRIORITIES - What paths are picked first when multiple scan requests are being processed.

Format:

"SERVER_SCAN_PRIORITIES": {
  "PRIORITY LEVEL#": [
    "/path/to/library/in/Plex"
  ],
},

Google Drive Monitoring

As mentioned earlier, Autoscan can monitor Google Drive for changes. It does this by utilizing a proactive cache ( vs building a cache from start to end).

Once a change is detected, the file will be checked against the Plex database to make sure this is not already there. If this match comes back negative, a scan request for the parent folder is added into the process queue, and if that parent folder is already in the process queue, the duplicate request will be ignored.

TEAMDRIVE - Enable or Disable monitoring of changes inside Team Drives. Default is false.

Note: For the TEAMDRIVE setting to take effect, you set this to true and run the authorize command (see below).

TEAMDRIVES - What Team Drives to monitor. Requires TEAMDRIVE to be enabled.

Format:

"TEAMDRIVES": [
  "NAME_OF_TEAMDRIVE_1",
  "NAME_OF_TEAMDRIVE_2"
],

Example: For 2 Teamdrives named Shared_Movies and Shared_TV.

"TEAMDRIVES": [
  "Shared_Movies",

],

Note: This is just a list of Teamdrives, not the specific paths within it.

POLL_INTERVAL - How often (in seconds) to check for Google Drive changes.

SHOW_CACHE_LOGS - Show cache messages from Google Drive. Default is false.

BINARY - Path to rclone binary if not in standard location.

CONFIG - Path to rclone config file containing rclone Crypt remote configuration. Required for rclone Crypt decoder.

CRYPT_MAPPINGS - Mapping of path (root or subfolder) of Google Drive crypt (My Drive/ or Team Drive Name/) to rclone mount name. These values enable rclone crypt decoder.

Example: Crypt folder on drive called encrypt mapped to rclone crypt mount called gcrypt:.
```
"CRYPT_MAPPINGS": {
  "My Drive/encrypt/": [
    "gcrypt:"
  ]
},
```
Example: Crypt Teamdrive named Shared_TV mapped to rclone crypt mount called Shared_TV_crypt:.
```
"CRYPT_MAPPINGS": {
  "Shared_TV/": [
    "Shared_TV_crypt:"
  ]
},
```

To set this up:

Edit config.json file, to enable the Google Drive monitoring and fill in your Google Drive API Client ID and Secret.
```
"ENABLED": true,
"CLIENT_ID": "yourclientid",
"CLIENT_SECRET": "yourclientsecret",
```
Next, you will need to authorize Google Drive.
```
python scan.py authorize
```

Visit the link shown to get the authorization code and paste that in and hit enter.

Visit https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth?scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fdrive&redirect_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Awg%3Aoauth%3A2.0%3Aoob&response_type=code&client_id=&access_type=offline and authorize against the account you wish to use
Enter authorization code:

When access token retrieval is successful, you'll see this:

2018-06-24 05:57:58,252 -     INFO -    GDRIVE [140007964366656]: Requesting access token for auth code '4/AAAfPHmX9H_kMkMasfdsdfE4r8ImXI_BddbLF-eoCOPsdfasdfHBBzffKto'
2018-06-24 05:57:58,509 -     INFO -    GDRIVE [140007964366656]: Retrieved first access token!
2018-06-24 05:57:58,511 -     INFO -  AUTOSCAN [140007964366656]: Access tokens were successfully retrieved!

Note: Message stating Segmentation fault at the end can be ignored.

You will now need to add in your Google Drive paths into SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS. This will tell Autoscan to map Google Drive paths to their local counterpart.

i. Native install
- Format:
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/path/on/local/host": [
        "/path/on/sonarr/host/",
        "path/on/google/drive/"
    ]
},
```
  Note 1: The Google Drive path does not start with a forward slash (/). Paths in My Drive will start with just My Drive/. and paths in a Google Teamdrive will start with teamdrive_name/.
  
  Note 2: Foreign users of Google Drive might not see My Drive listed on their Google Drive. They can try using the My Drive/... path or see what the log shows and match it up to that. One example is Mon\u00A0Drive/ for French users.
- For example, if you store your files under My Drive's Media folder (My Drive/Media/...), the server path mappings will look like this:
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
  "/mnt/unionfs/Media/Movies/": [
    "/home/seed/media/fused/"
    "My Drive/Media/Movies/"
  ],
},
```
- For example, if you store your files under a Google Teamdrive called "shared_movies" and within a Media folder (shared_movies/Media/...), the server path mappings will look like this:
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
  "/mnt/unionfs/Media/Movies/": [
    "/home/seed/media/fused/"
    "shared_movies/Media/Movies/"
  ],
},
```
ii. Docker install
- Format:
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
    "/path/in/plex/container/": [
       "/path/from/sonarr/container/",
       "path/on/google/drive/"
    ]
},
```
  Note 1: The Google Drive path does not start with a forward slash (/). Paths in My Drive will start with just My Drive/. and paths in a Google Teamdrive will start with teamdrive_name/.
  
  Note 2: Foreign users of Google Drive might not see My Drive listed on their Google Drive. They can try using the My Drive/... path or see what the log shows and match it up to that. One example is Mon\u00A0Drive/ for French users.
- For example, if you store your files under Google Drive's My Drive Media folder (My Drive/Media/...) AND run Plex in a docker container, the server path mappings will look like this:
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
  "/data/Movies/": [
    "/movies/",
    "My Drive/Media/Movies/"
  ]
}
```
- For example, if you store your files under Google Drive's Teamdrive called "shared_movies" and within a Media folder (shared_movies/Media/...) AND run Plex in a docker container, the server path mappings will look like this:
  - Format:
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
  "/data/Movies/": [
    "/movies/",
    "NAME_OF_TEAMDRIVE/Media/Movies/"
  ]
}
```
  - Example:
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
  "/data/Movies/": [
    "/movies/",
    "shared_movies/Media/Movies/"
  ]
}
```
rclone crypt Support - If your mounted Google Drive is encrypted using rclone crypt, Autoscan can also decode the filenames for processing changes. This includes drives/team drives entirely encrypted or just a subfolder.
1. Configure rclone values. Example below:
```
"RCLONE": {
  "BINARY": "/usr/bin/rclone",
  "CONFIG": "/home/seed/.config/rclone/rclone.conf",
  "CRYPT_MAPPINGS": {
    "My Drive/encrypt/": [
       "gcrypt:"
    ]
  }
},
```
2. Disable mime type checking in your config file. This is not currently supported with rclone Crypt Decoding. rclone crypt encodes file paths and encrypts files causing Google Drive to reports all files in a crypt as '" mimeType": "application/octet-stream"'.
  
  "MIME_TYPES": false
3. Add in your rclone crypt paths on Google Drive into 'SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS'. This will tell Autoscan to map rclone crypt paths on Google Drive to their local counterpart.
```
"SERVER_PATH_MAPPINGS": {
  "/home/seed/media/": [
  "My Drive/encrypt/"
  ]
},
```
Google Drive Monitoring is now setup.

rclone remote control

Note: This if for rclone mounts using the "cache" or "vfs" backends.

When RC_CACHE_REFRESH is enabled, if a file exist check fails (as set in SERVER_FILE_EXIST_PATH_MAPPINGS), Plex Autoscan will keep sending a rclone cache/expire or vfs/refresh requests, for that file's parent folder, until the file check succeeds.

For example, if the file /mnt/unionfs/Media/A Good Movie (2000)/A Good Movie.mkv doesn't exist locally, then a clear cache request will be sent to the remote for A Good Movie (2000) folder, on the rclone remote. But if a file exist checks fails again, it will move to the parent folder and try to clear that (eg Media), and keep doing this until a file check exists comes back positive or checks count reaches SERVER_MAX_FILE_CHECKS.

  "RCLONE": {
    "RC_CACHE_REFRESH": {
      "ENABLED": false,
      "FILE_EXISTS_TO_REMOTE_MAPPINGS": {
        "Media/": [
          "/mnt/unionfs/Media/"
        ]
      },
      "RC_URL": "http://localhost:5572"
    }
  },

ENABLED - enable or disable cache clearing.

FILE_EXISTS_TO_REMOTE_MAPPINGS - maps local mount path to rclone remote one. Used during file exists checks.

Format:

"FILE_EXISTS_TO_REMOTE_MAPPINGS": {
  "folder_on_rclone_remote/": [
    "/path/to/locally/mounted/folder/"
  ]
},

RC_URL - URL and Port rclone RC is set to.
