ignore *iso files - vvojtek - 2025-01-17

Hi, 


Is it possible to ignore certain files in a directory so they don't appear in the movie catalog? For instance, I have *.mkv files, but the directory also contains other files like *.iso and *.tgz. In Plex, those files were automatically skipped and didn’t show up in the library. Is there a way to exclude *.iso and *.tgz files?

No, it's not possible. It's either the whole directory or nothing using a .ignore file. However, here's a feature request related to it and a plugin someone mentioned. I haven't tried it myself, so I can't vouch for whether it works.
