Greetings!
Came across this script and sounds like exactly what I was looking for to save some of the custom artwork I've uploaded to Plex but never saved a local copy of.
I was attempting to use the script directly through Tautulli which may be part of the problem I was running into.
After updating the script to include my docker path locations/token etc found I was running into the following error when attempting a test run. (Removed movie name)
Tautulli Notifiers :: Script returned: Downloading poster for A Movie to /mnt/user/data/media/movies/A Movie (2013)/A Movie (2013).mkv Failed to download poster for A Movie: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/mnt/user'
For my specified mapped folders I have the following.
MAPPED_FOLDERS = { '/mnt/user/data/': '/data', }
I've also mapped this location to my Tautulli docker container as well (Not totally sure if necessary)
From the error of course seems to be permissions related but unsure which permission level it is looking for and it's it's truly on the /mnt/user/ level as not keen on changing the permissions on such a high level of the folder tree.
Again maybe trying to run through Tautuilli is adding some unneeded complexity or I've over looked something simple.
Thanks again for sharing such an awesome sound script, really excited to get it working!
