Can’t play any movies - MDE error

Server Version#: 1.15.5.994
Player Version#: Web 3.95.2

Also fails on iPad version 5.14

Hi, I am getting an error on all of my movie files. These files used to play fine. Now I can’t play any movies at all.

This is the display error:

I get these errors in the log:

It started with just a few files having the issue. I found another topic in here with a similar error that said that re-analyzing the files fixed it. I re-analyzed my entire movie library and now all the movies have this issue. Even a movie that I played successfully last night.

Here is the analysis log when i analyze one of the movie files.
Plex Media Scanner Analysis.log (3.5 KB)

Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

Changing the path to my pre-roll video in the Plex server settings from a library path (https) to the file path (P:\Path\to\video.ext) fixed this! See this post and thread for details: [Solved] ALL movies no longer play after update to PMS v1.15.3.835 (s1001 error)
