You should probably close down your other two threads and consolidate your problem into one Each error you’re seeing is likely related to the same problem and it’s helpful for all the info to be in one place ---

mayby so but i thought it would be better for others researching a particular error to see the result. all the errors are in each log to see. i didnt want it to get to off topic ethier making it seem that one error gets resolved but not others. what do you think? ---

> [@joe.king.cool](#): > > does anyone know what is causing this? or how to resolve? As for the error – just ignore it. IIRC Plex have commented before that this one has no deeper meaning and won’t cause any actual issues. ---

im not sure what IIRC Plex is. i have quite a few errors, i just picked the ones that seem to happen when plex photo timeline decides to go bonkers. im not sure if there related but the only thing that dont work is photo timeline and it quits within a few seconds of these errors. was hoping to get the reason for the error. but i kinda assumed that all these errors can be ignored. thank you. ---
