Files Wont Move Back From Cache

[craigino]

I have created a cache directory that is not under the control of the Unraid mover. PlexCache.py moved the files to the cache, but it never moves them back. I have set the logging level to debug and do not see any errors. And the files that were moved to cache say they were modified 6 days ago. Not sure what I am missing.

Here is my plexcache_settings.json.

{
"PLEX_URL": "http://192.168.0.100:32400",
"PLEX_TOKEN": "blablablabla-HXNsN",
"plex_source": "/media/",
"plex_library_folders": [
"tv"
],
"valid_sections": [
2
],
"number_episodes": 5,
"days_to_monitor": 30,
"watchlist_toggle": false,
"watchlist_episodes": 0,
"watchlist_cache_expiry": 1,
"users_toggle": false,
"skip_ondeck": [],
"skip_watchlist": [],
"watched_move": true,
"watched_cache_expiry": 24,
"cache_dir": "/mnt/user/plexcache/media/",
"real_source": "/mnt/user/data/media/",
"nas_library_folders": [
"tv"
],
"exit_if_active_session": false,
"max_concurrent_moves_cache": 5,
"max_concurrent_moves_array": 2,
"debug": true
}

Here are the logs.
