Plex Music Grabber

Plex Music Grabber is a tool that monitors your Plex TV Show library for missing theme music. Unfortunately not all shows on Plex have theme songs, so I wrote this script that automatically downloads theme songs.

Key features

  • Download missing theme songs
  • Works with TV shows, which are also provided by Plex
  • Works with Movies, which are not provided by Plex.
  • Supports movie/show folders named like: Movie (year) {tmdb-12345}

Installation

  1. Mount the /library volume on your tv show directory
  2. Choose a scan interval (seconds) of your liking

Docker CLI

docker run -d \
--name plex-music-grabber \
-v /path/to/tvshows:/library/tvshows \
-v /path/to/movies:/library/movies \
-e interval=3600 \
-e library_path=/library/tvshows,/library/movies \
--restart unless-stopped \
rutgernijhuis/plex-music-grabber

Docker Compose

version: "3.3"
services:
  plex-music-grabber:
    image: rutgernijhuis/plex-music-grabber
    container_name: plex-music-grabber
    volumes:
      - ./my-library/movies:/library/movies
      - ./my-library/tvshows:/library/tvshows
    environment:
      - interval=3600
      - library_path=/library/movies,/library/tvshows
    restart: unless-stopped
    network_mode: default

library_path variable needs one or more mounted paths to you library containing sub folders with media folders. Multiple paths needs to be comma seperated.

Telegram notifications

Add these environment variables:

  • telegram_chat_id
  • telegram_token

Post installation

  1. Verify that the script is working by checking your show folders, the program should create a theme.mp3 file.
  2. Make sure Plex uses your local assets in your media. Go to Plex > Settings > Agents > Shows > {one/all of your agents}
  3. Ensure Local Media Assets(TV) is checked. Optionally, you can change the priorities of where Plex should get your metadata from.
  4. Go to a show in Plex and refresh it's metadata, the song should play :)

Options

Ignoring items

When you don't want a show folder to be searched for you can choose to ignore it. Do so by adding a .themeignore file in the directory

Running it locally

Python native

If you want to run it locally, I suppose you know what you are doing.

Tested on Python 3.9

pip install -r requirements.txt

Note Before running:

The script uses environment variables to locate your library and the interval time. I used VSCode for developing and added them to ./vscode/launch.json

library_path="path/to/your/test/library"
interval=5

Or set env variables in your CLI.

Library structure

Your library should be in the following structure:

  • The shows path must be specified when starting the script.
  • All directories below shows will be searched for if they don't contain a theme.mp3 file. These directories need human readable names!
  • Everything below the show directory will be ignored.
