Managed Accounts

[dphildebrandt]

Doesn't seem to work with managed accounts ie, Plex Home users.

Yes, I noticed this as well. I think it works for shared users, interestingly, but not managed home users.

[dphildebrandt]

Yup, can confirm shared users work great.

[BEisem]

I have a hunch the reason it's not working for managed users is because managed users have their own Plex token, separate from the main user. The token is a bit more difficult to find, but you can figure it out by viewing an item from the managed user's web interface, and searching the page source for "Plex-token."

I'm currently trying to figure out a way to run a separate Plex-Auto-Languages docker container and feeding it the managed user's token in the yaml file. This is clearly not an ideal situation, but might work until/if a fix is provided by the developer.

Currently only shared users are supported, I'm working on adding support for managed users as well but for some reason it cannot be done in the same way.

[dphildebrandt]

Yeah the managed users are set up a bit differently/more complicated than regular shared users.

Support for managed users has been added by #20 and published in v1.0.9. Let me know if everything works as expected.

I just installed v1.0.9, and now I'm getting repeated errors. I'm not sure, but I think it might be coming from shared users. So it seems like maybe this update broke shared user support. Here's the error:

[RemiRigal]

Thank you for the fast response. It should be fixed in v1.0.10.

[BEisem]

Also, I just tested with a managed user, and I don't believe it's working there either. Not sure if the fix will also fix that? But I'll test as soon as it is deployed.

[BEisem]

That fixed it, thanks!

[dphildebrandt]

Works flawlessly, thanks!
