Media server 1.42.2.10156 download issues

Plex Media Server

when downloading files to my ipad if the files require even the smallest transcode which plex optimized versions always do then if im download multiple files at once it will only download 1/3 to half the files and say the downloads are complete and i have to go to the downloads section and refresh for it to start downloading the rest but if there are alot of files it again will only download 1/3 to half of the remaining files and i have to refresh the downloads section over and over again until all files are downloaded. but this is only with files that doing any sort of transcoding.

most of the files i re-encode with handbrake dont transcode so they download fine. this is a problem because i usually download the night before because i dont usually have the time to do it before i go out.

if i use plex transcode to optimize my media they all do a slight transcode when downloading which means i have to keep an eye on it to make sure they all download

Probably should move your logs here instead of a mega thread. Stability issues with a server using WiFi would seem expected.

Need a cert reset, you hit the rate limit.

also this thread is a seperate issue not related to the new experience app which is why i posted my logs there

should have posted that the client version that this is happening on is the old app 8.45.

if i roll the server back a few versions this issue doesnt exist its only been happening the last couple of live and beta versions
