Configuration:

Rename the user.ini.config to user.ini.
Edit the user.ini with information that is relevant to your install.
If you are downloading/syncing remotely you must enter your myplex information and enable myplex.
Start by running "python plexdl.py".

Find the section ID

You can find your movie/music/tv/photo section ID by visiting your Plex Web and going to the category you want to sync. Example:

http://localhost:32400/web/index.html#!/server/.../section/2

The ID you are looking for is the number at the end which in the above example is 2.

You can also find your content section ID by visiting:

http://localhost:32400/library/sections/

User.ini

Note that if you need to give a % (percent) sign in one of the following fields, you will actually need to double it. So for example if your password is my%password, you will need to set the field as such: password=my%%password.
