Since a few days Plex Sync seems to be VIP only even it was not about a month ago. What is wrong?
@support . Any comment on this?
Thanks
I’m referencing to this post from Kevin:
Here they stated Plex Sync to make available to non-VIP users.
For me, this is the standard sync function (which was working a while)
A bit delayed from the announcement, but Plex sync is available for free users as of today. You can configure 1 server with a daily refresh for free. If you’re VIP, you can sync multiple servers with an hourly refresh.
Thanks Justin.
I was able to connect the server. Will see tomorrow how the sync performed.
Is there a specific time that the sync is happening for free users? If I use my laptop as Plex Server, does it need to be on/connected to the wifi at the time the sync is supposed to happen? I connected everything around 24h ago and nothing was synced.
We assume the plex server is on 24/7 since we can’t guarantee a specific time the sync will occur.
Did your Plex settings change when you started noticing these extra items being added? The recent changes we made were mostly UI and settings re-organization, not backend changes with the sync itself. That’s why it’s weird it would have all of a sudden changed on its own.
I had to change the hardware on my plex-server (copied all the settings)
Maybe caused by this?
Or maybe baused by change from VIP to Standard user in May?
