I am experiencing a weird situation with the Plex server installed on my mac. I just purchased a Seagate personal cloud NAS which can have the plea server installed directly on it. Works great and I have it pointed at my Movies folder also installed on the Seagate Drive. Problem is that it is on the slow side so I wanted a comparison point and installed the plea server on my mac and pointed it to exactly the same movie directory on my NAS. The Plex server on my NAS detects 530 movies which is correct. No help from me, all movies were detected during initial scan and look great. The Plex server on my Mac only picks up 350 movies??? I went so far as to uninstall and re-install the server on my mac thinking that I changed something accidentally. Nope, it only captures the 350 movies and is missing the same ones it did on first install. It's not my naming conventions since the Plex server directly installed on the NAS reads everything fine.
What am I missing here? I would rather use the server on my Mac as it will run faster. All files are MP4 and are named properly (Movie name (2011).Mp4)
Any help would be appreciated
