I've read the documentation.

• I'm running the latest version of the TubeArchivist Plex Integration Scanner and Agent. I have read the latest release notes and installation instructions.

Operating System

Docker Compose for all on Ubuntu Hosts

Your Bug Report

Describe the bug

When you run the Plex Scanner to scan in your recently added TubeArchivist files nothing happens in the WebGUI and in the logs you get the errors shown below

Steps To Reproduce

Upgrade TubeArchivist to v.5 .0 and then allow it to be connected to this tubearchivist-plex

Expected behavior

Videos and Metadata would sync into Plex as before
