# - validate-plex-backups.sh: Backup validation tools
# - test-plex-backup.sh: Testing framework
#
# Usage:
# ./plex.sh start # Start Plex service
# ./plex.sh stop # Stop Plex service
# ./plex.sh restart # Restart Plex service
# ./plex.sh status # Show service status
# ./plex.sh scan # Launch library scanner
# ./plex.sh repair # Repair Plex database issues
# ./plex.sh nuclear # Nuclear recovery mode
# ./plex.sh help # Show help menu
