Downgrade possible =?

Plex Media Server NAS & Devices

How is it possible to downgrade my PMS to 1.42.xxxxxxx (before new ffmpeg has been added) as the world was great that time?!

NAS: ASUSTOR

MODEL: AS7010T

PMS: latest Version ()

Problem:

  1. Where to find old versions able to be installed on my NAS?

  2. How do I downgrade to that old version on my ASUSTOR as I am expecting that an manual install through ADM-software-install won‘t work?

Thanks

What are the issues that you’re having with 1.43.0?

  1. Did you install from the Asustor store or did you manually install PMS?
    • There may be previous installs here: /volume1/Plex/Library/Plex Media Server/Updates
  2. You need to remove the existing PMS first. After that you can install 1.42.xx.
    • Removing the PMS app just removes the install, not your media or server data files.

All streams since 1.43.xxxxx are not running smoothly and it doesn‘t matter if movie and/or show.

OttoKerner mentioned that new ffmpeg has been added so that might cause troubles.

That‘s why I would like to downgrade …

Install from ASUSTOR-store but no chance to find previous versions compatible with ASUSTOR

Sure that only the app will be removed?

100%! Just removed and installed on an Asustor I have with me. In most cases if the uninstall or removal from a NASs store is destructive, they’ll provide a warning prompt.

I couldn’t immediately find the previous 1.42.x builds. I’ll have to ask around.

In the meantime could you please do the following;

  1. Confirm server DEBUG logging is enabled, VERBOSE logging is disabled.
    SAVE if changes.
  2. Restart PMS
  3. Give it two minutes to start and stabilize
  4. Start a playback which shows the issue
  5. Let it play for 20 seconds
  6. Stop the playback
  7. Download the server logs
  8. Attach the logs so I may see them.

I’d like to understand what’s happening that making such a bad experience.
