Service Configuration: Unmanic

Unmanic

Unmanic can automatically keep your entire libraries format consistent.

Unmanic's configuration is fairly simple, however, to take advantage of the Rclone Uploader when pointing Unmanic at your entire library, you should use the Mover plugin as described below.

General Config

• Settings -> Workers -> Cache Path, set it to /shared/caches/unmanic. This stops Docker from copying between filesystems and increasing disk I/O.

Converting only new files

If you wish Unmanic to convert only new files added to your library (prior to upload), you should set:

• Library path: /shared/separate/Media

All other settings and plugins are up to you.

Converting your entire library

If you wish Unmanic to maintain consistency over your whole library, you should set the following:

• Library path: /shared/merged/Media
• Plugins -> 'Mover'

Plugin Setting	Value
Destination Directory	/shared/separate/Media
Recreate directory structure	(Ticked)
Also include library path when re-creating the directory structure	(Unticked)
Remove source files	(Ticked)

The mover plugin ensures that converted media are put back into the proper upload queue, rather than written to the mount directly.
