    Transfer Plex viewstate information (watched/unwatched, view progress and ratings) between users

  • I think you may have downloaded the source code instead of the release. You want the files from here: https://github.com/cetteup/transfer-plex-user-viewstate/releases

  • plex-sync

    :clapper: Command line utility for synchronizing Plex Media Server watched / seen status between multiple servers

  • For a while I used plex-sync (https://github.com/jacobwgillespie/plex-sync) to synchronize my different user’s watch statuses from my Mac and Synology, including the main admin account and managed user, but now I don’t want to use the Managed User anymore (esp since the new Discovery feature doesn’t work with Managed Users). Previously I enabled the PMS token in logs so I could use tokens to sync accounts (I could find tokens for the Home and Managed user separately) using the plex-sync script, but I see you can no longer enable tokens in the logs. My tokens have changed since I reinstalled on a new M1 Macbook Pro. I can find the main user’s token using the view XML from a library item’s Get Info but I can’t get the token for a Managed User this way.
