@blindpet: exactly same behavior when using webplayer.
@zenmod can you make a clip of the video and send it to me so I can test?
Is it all videos or just this one causing issues?
Are you using the new web player?
@blindpet: its not the media. Im observing the same thing in other medias
as well. The transcoder runs fine for audio only transcoding. However, when
it needs video transcoding, it crashes.
@zenmod I will need the media itself then as Iām unable to reproduce this with my media, our config files are otherwise the same. I am not using iOS for anything though and only testing with the web player and am not using subtitles.
@blindpet: im not using subtitles anymore and the error still happens.
@zenmod post a link to the edited clip version of the video and Iāll test it.
If you are on Windows this tool should make it easy to cut a slice http://www.prvsoft.com/video-cutter.html
@blindpet and @zenmod I can easily reproduce this issue with Raspbian (Minibian) and also with Ubuntu with h264 encoded movies. Itās caused by an unaligned memory access in the transcoder. I just do not know why it is not a problem on my Bananapi (everything is fine) 
I will get back with more information this evening. 0.9.16.6 is hold back till I know what to do 
@uglymagoo then it sounds like a bug in the encoder itself that Bananian is somehow working around. Another user here experienced it with regular Raspbian too. Are you getting in on Ubuntu for non-ARM systems as well?
@uglymagoo good catch! So, just to be clear : you could reproduce the issue using Minibian AND Raspbian in your rpi2 ?
So, to summarize :
rpi2 + Raspbian + h264 media = FAIL
rpi2 + Minibian + h264 media = FAIL
bananapi + Bananian + h264 media = OK
Question : your bananaPi uses the readyNas or sinology version ?
Thx,
Cheers,
@zenmod and @blindpet I believe it might be this bug in the x264 library (Plex New Transcoder is ffmpeg which uses x264). Other people are reporting this bug for ffmpeg on RPi 2 as well. So we need a new Plex New Transcoder build to fix this 
@zenmod Your summary is correct as far as I know. I use the readynas build.
@uglymagoo : Ouch! The good news is that bug seems to be already fiexed in the ffmpeg :
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.x264.devel/10990
@uglymagoo : out of curiosity : how do you effective caught the SIGBUS error ? is there a way to manually invoke the transcoder using command line ? If so, please let me know.
Thank you.
nevermind. Just got it here. Cheers.
@uglymagoo : one idea: i will get synology deb and will use its transcoder intested of the readynas. Letās see if synology build was built with a newer version of ffmpegā¦
Good news : synology new transcoder build is newer than the one used in netgear build( see below).
Iāll try to copy the synology transcoder only to my netgear installā¦letās see how it worksā¦Iāll keep u posted
Cheers

The build version for the new transcoder in netgear and synology are the same.
Sorry by the inconvenience
@uglymagoo : how did you get the SIGBUS error ? Iām asking because Im running the transcoder by hand and Itās not crashing at all . By example :
