I really don’t see how I can explain this BAN concern. Whenever a number of users downloaded your file from your Google Drive account then Google will put a stopper on the download limit.
Plex will request multiple packets of files from Google Drive, then continue to do so throughout the episode.Īs Google does not allow us to see the download quota in real time, I was wondering if during a transcode, Plex asked for 5GB at the end for the whole file, or if at the end, the total download by Plex was greater than 5GB ? If this is the case is Google worth that only 5GB have been downloaded in fair use?
I have a 5gb file that I want to watch transcoded. So I may have thought of a download limit. I did a 24 hour audit extraction and I am well below in terms of API request (if I understand that 1 API request = 1 line on the google audit). So I tried to understand where it could come from, but without really finding an explanation. On the other hand, when there is a transcode, this represents thousands of lines for a single file viewed and this throughout the viewing of the episode. I have noticed that when I watch an episode in live play, I have 5 lines after the start of playback in the audit that appears. However on Google Drive, I went to see the Google Drive audit and saw that there was a lot of line on a file. The 24 hours ago I had to add 4 show, a scan and little use of reading. When I scanned everything for the first time I was taking several BAN APIs (unable to download anything), which can be normal when on a large library.Īfter getting everything back in I had a quiet week without BAN API, and yesterday I had one. On Plex I have disabled all thumbnails, periodic maintenance etc… which can lead to BAN APIs. On Mountain Duck I have enabled indexing and caching. My librairies will search the UNC path of my Google Drive folders.

After that back to your google drive account and then click “F5” to refresh your google drive page, now the file will be available in your Google Drive quick access.I am having a problem with my configuration of my Plex server.

You can also check the isAppAuthorized field on a file to verify that your app created or opened the file. Instruct the user to open the file using the Open with context menu in the Drive UI of your app. There is a trick that allows you to bypass Google Drive’s 24 hour limit, here’s how it works: To fix this error, try any of the following: Open the Google Drive picker and prompt the user to open the file. If a file is particularly popular, it may take days or even longer before you manage to download it to your computer or place it on your Drive storage. The period that a file is locked may be shorter according to Google. If too many users view or download a file, it may be locked for a 24 hour period before the quota is reset.
The explanation for the error message is simple: while users are free to share files publicly, or with a large number of users, quotas are in effect that limit availability.
