Hi All,

About a year ago I transferred all my files to a new drive. I used filzezilla which did mostly ok-ish, but I didn’t notice that some of the video files were corrupted. Random files will have a green tinge to them (like someone put a green filter over the lens).

It seems random, although if it’s a series it’s usually the whole series.

I’ve been replacing them as they come up, but I was wondering if anyone had any bright ideas to expedite the process.

Thanks for any help!

    Thanks for explaining, but I still want to make sure I understand the purpose of Tdarr. One thing I’ve noticed about tools like this is the documentation usually gets right into the “how” and skips over the “what and why”. So Tdarr transcodes a library with intention of a new, permanent output library? Is that correct? I’m used to transcoding in the context Plex does it: On the fly to serve to a client, and temporary.

    If my understanding is correct then maybe it’ll help address issues, but still an awesome tool to help optimize my library.

    Thanks for taking the time. Most of my coding background is mostly from monitoring and control, so I’m still learning a lot about the nuts and bolts of the whole stack that makes stuff like plex work.
