Each of these hubs has 3 checkboxes. Which have you ticked, and where are you expecting to find the hub? Is the player actually logged into the same plex account? Has it been re-started recently? ---

I’d say at this stage you should try a repair of your server database. Use the .bat file to make this as convenient as possible (ensure plenty of free space on drive C: beforehand): [PlexDBRepair/Windows at master · ChuckPa/PlexDBRepair · GitHub](https://github.com/ChuckPa/PlexDBRepair/tree/master/Windows) ---

> [@banginbeatz1982\_gmail\_com](#): > > will this script still work if the database location is not in the default location ? Yes. It will fetch the location of the DB from the registry. This works as long as you run it under the same Windows user account as your Plex server is running. (Unless you run it as Windows service that is pretty much always the case.) Stop Plex server beforehand, using its task tray icon. ---

It will perform a check itself. The repair may also help if the [regular check](https://support.plex.tv/articles/repair-a-corrupted-database/) spits out no error. Open a cmd.exe window and run the .bat in there, if you want to follow the messages it returns. ---
