Interval flag not respected

[raidancampbell]

This may 100% be an issue with my collectd install, but I've found the Interval flag (in the LoadPlugin) section of collectd.conf does not change the query frequency of collectd-plex. A simple solution would be to add a parser argument, and pass it as the second parameter in the following line:

 collectd.register_read(get_metrics)

As it stands, I see collectd-plex query the server every 15 seconds, and no matter how many changes I made to collectd.conf, nothing changed this behavior. By changing the above line to:

 collectd.register_read(get_metrics, 60)

I see the update interval drop to the expected 60 seconds.

I would have expected that the Interval flag set in the LoadPlugin python section would work, but it did not. Below is the relevant sections of my config:

 <LoadPlugin python>
   Globals true
   Interval 60
 </LoadPlugin>

...

 <Plugin python>
     ModulePath "/usr/local/src/collectd-plex"
     Import "plex"
     Interval 60
   <Module plex>
     Host "******"
     Port 32400
     AuthToken ******
     Interval 60
   </Module>
 </Plugin>

As expected, the two Interval flags in the <Plugin python> section and subsection do nothing: they simply raise warnings for unexpected flags.
