Buffering associated with SQLITE error

Server Version#: 1.23.2.4656
Player Version#: tvOS 7.18.1

For the last few weeks I have noticed a lot more buffering on all of the streaming platforms I use (macOS, iOS and tvOS). Server is running in Docker. I have troubleshooted this evening and noted that every time it buffers I get this huge repetition of an SQLite error in the logs (have attached a brief sample below). Any idea what could be causing this and how I can resolve it?

That error is just logging. It should not have an effect in performance. Please provide your full PMS logs and Apple TV logs after seeing the issue.

Double quoted string literals don’t have any ill effect as SQLITE will work around the issue itself. Really it’s a typographical error in the code and all strings should be single quoted ’ instead of double quoted "

The error is more of an annoyance than anything…

In addition to the above comments, I believe the “double-quoted string literal” issues have been addressed in 1.23.3.

So it’s a coincidence then?

Yea, just a coincidence.
