Plex version. 1.19.3.2843
Keep getting transcode error if I attempt to play movie remotely. No issue in home network
Running plex in docker on OMV with network set to host.
Do I need a transcode folder mapped? Thanks

You don’t say where the container path /config is mapped to. But wherever that is, the drive it is on must be mounted with the exec option. If the drive is mounted noexec, then the transcoders will not run.

Setting a transcode directory is optional.

Thanks! linux and omv noob
I had edited the etc/openmediavault/config.xml after drive mounts but not etc/fstab
I just edited /etc/fstab and removed all the “noexec” for all mounts
now transcoding works with remote access
SOLVED

Hey, I have the same issue, what did you change in the OMV config file ?
Thank you

There is a “noexec” flag in the file. link below shows where it is. I used nano to text edit. There is a link to Techno dad life. He has videos on how to set up OMV with dockers.

Rather than deleting noexec when making these edits I suggest changing it to exec instead. This makes it clear what was done.
