Crashes after "ghost" media is added to Plex

See original GitHub issue

It starts up fine and is then “Watching for media on NAS”. After a while it says “was added to NAS”, i.e. empty string was added. I did not add anything to my Plex library at the time. It then tries to process this nothing and gets a bad request from the Plex API since it’s a 404, and then the Docker container crashes/restarts and the process is repeated. I do have process_recently_added enabled for TV, so watching for added media is correct. process_deleted is disabled (I’m not sure why this setting exists). It does work when actual files are added so that’s great. Since I have Plex set to delete episodes a while after being watched, my best guess is that this deletion triggers bw_plex – which then tries to find metadata for something that no longer exists.

Here’s the log:

It didn’t crash, so that’s great 😃
