Collections keep getting corrupted

Server Version#:1.43.2.10687

I’m trying to set up manual collections, but having an issue where the items don’t save, or get corrupted later on.

  • Create the Collection
  • Add items to it
  • It works fine for a few days/a week

Then, it gets corrupted.

  • Collection names and thumbnails show correctly
  • 0 items shown under the title
  • No items when clicking through
  • It’s not all collections (approx. 30 out of 60, half)
  • Shows consistently on all players

Tried the following to troubleshoot:

  • Reboot Plex
  • Reboot media server computer
  • Plex Database repair scripts

This happened a few weeks ago, and I just figured I’d done something wrong, so I manually went through and recreated them. And then it happened again.

Hoping to find a way to get those back, and then back them up. Ideally, I’d be able to write the collection to a tag in the file, so it’s more permanent, if something was to happen with Plex again.
