Three nights in a row now Plex has crashed at almost the exact same time. At this time recodings are happening, which then fail, but there is zero interaction with any clients.

Has anyone else experience this?

What I see is tens of thousands of lines of guide data operations, which is strange because the nightly operation is set to happen at 5am and my crashes are happening within two minutes of midnight. So, why is my nightly maintenance operation happening at midnight instead of five am? Does that for some reason go off UTC time and not local time? I’ve now disabled most of what Plex does during this maintenance as I can no longer trust Plex to not crash again and cease recordings.

I only have the last two, I believe the third was the same. These are happening at the exact same memory location in Plex each night.

I’m not including any logs because every single night the crash uploader says it submitted them. So you must just look up my account and get them there if anyone actually cares.

FOUR nights in a row.

The only thing plex was doing was recording an SD channel with a couple minutes of overlap in each direction.

In scheduled tasks I have "Perform refresh of program guide data. " explicitly unchecked. Yet still right around midnight this process fired up again…

Like clockwork. FIVE nights in a row.

Again at the exact same spot.

I have a feeling it’s something about “The Powerpuff Girls (1998)” that is making plex s***.

It would sure be nice if someone at plex even cared.
