Docker install of Plex Media Server | libusb_init failed

Server Version#: Latest docker image
Player Version#: NA

I’m trying to install PMS via the official docker image (GitHub - plexinc/pms-docker: Plex Media Server Docker repo, for all your PMS docker needs.).

I used the standard docker-compose.yaml from GitHub and provided the relevant settings for my environment.

Here’s the log

Critical: libusb_init failed

I googled this error and while I see it reported in various forums all I see is “it doesn’t seem to affect the operation”.

Two questions on this:

  • Given the log shows the first startup, does this look alright; i.e. started correctly?
  • Do I need to worry about the libusb_init failed message

Thanks guys
