Also my DS - 118 synology has problems with transcoding.
Freeze all the time. Also the mediaserver has problems now with mkv files,
and in the past was that no issue.
Uploaded the logfiles. Hopefully you can do something with the info. Plex Media Server.zip (164.1 KB)
I updated to this new version hoping to fix DVR recording issues. They are still occurring see the below I posted in āRecording failed. Please check your tuner or antennaā regarding ongoing DVR issues.
They are still occurring in this version. See logs
I just installed this version on my Qnap TS 251+ and getting Playback Error per screenshot below on 5 channels tested via PMS Live TV in my Chrome browser fyi.
tested on my TLC Roku TV and similar results, PMS hits the wall at 33% witht the Plex orange spinner on 3 channels tested.
Been struggling with creating a Premium Music Library and have had awesome assistance from Trumpy81. He informed me that you cannot create a Premium Music library on an ARMv8 NAS.
Is this going to be addressed in future builds? Please? Pretty Please - anyone?
@ChuckPa I have not had the forethought to capture logs yet, but the next time it happens I will. Iāve been seeing an odd bug at random times with the last two alpha builds on my DS718+.
Essentially, what is happening is that Iāll be using Plex for some period of time (may have 1 or more users streaming a mix of content simultaneously) and all of a sudden none of the clients can connect to Plex. Iāve tried stopping and restarting Plex in the package center, checking port forwarding, other network settings, etc. The only thing that Iāve found which consistently resolves the issue is to reboot the NAS.
Have you heard of this or run in to it? Next time it happens Iāll capture logs. Would you want verbose for that or just standard debug?
I know a lot of the recent work has been for fixes on various Linux installs, but Iām just wondering, how is the current Windows experience? Any Windows testers up for chiming in?
I am going to post here for what i found on MacOS. The Plex Media Server is unable to start.

I did not see anything in the posts that suggested Minimum MacOS version currently I have 10.11.16 (Latest possible on Mac Pro (Early 2009))
In comparison 1.14.1.5488 runs great on this version of MacOS
I would be happy to try anything or collect any logs requested. the error was found at the command line as the double clicking the icon in the Finder did not launch the app.
@RogueGhost Iāve found the same also, especially with Live TV!! Iām about to upgrade my GPU from the GTX-750ti to a Quadro KX2200, so I can get unlimited transcodes, which I need for the multiple remote users and my other devices on the local network.
Oh @ChuckPa Many thanks for pointing out that I was trying to connect to the wrong web address earlier when I was switching to the account with the Plex Lifetime Pass that I was kindly given!! Plex is always going to be my home!!!
Very easy to fix transcoding option 1 limit Maximum simultaneous video transcode in transcode tab in settings 2 get your remote users to change settings to same remote streaming to original or maximum. 3 convert your content handbreak or plex convert i personally use Plex convert Android 3mb 720p TV Shows Movies Android 4mb 720p
Hi @RogueGhost
Thatās how Iāve always done it, but the TV requires transcoding even on the home network, and with 6 TV tuners, the Quadro GPU will come in very useful.
Iām still getting used to having this Plex Lifetime Pass also.
Looking forward to seeing what else they add or improve on Plex over the next 12 monthsā¦
Transcoding on P2000 is handled a lot better than with current stable version, works well on HP Gen7 Microserver with a Quadro P2000 and Windows Server 2019.
Great work guys.
p.s. 4k transcoding doesnāt seem to work though.
@RogueGhost Donāt worry, Iāve done the same on other posts.
@i_am_mortimer Nice to hear, my server is an i5 3330 with a GeForce GTX750ti currently, so if it works better than that on Live TV for transcoding is be very happy, plus transcoding multiple remote users from the HDD.
Iāve not found an issue with this version either, it just seems to do everything my remote users throw at it, plus live TV from the internal network. The only app I have issues with is PMP under Ubuntu playing Live TV as it drops randomly with *Playback Error" but in the browser it just runs all day and on the other devices.
After restarting my server last night i seem to have lost transcoding through the P2000. The same mediafile that initially played well and resulted in video encode and especially video decode activity on the P2000 only results in video encode atm and 100% proc load. Iāve attached my logs.Plex Media Server Logs_2019-01-12_12-19-30.zip (3.9 MB)
Had some problems with build 1.15.0.545 on macOS and are now back at 1.14.0.391.
Library Scanner never finished scanning and get stuck at the end. Stoping the Scanner (via GUI and Plex Statusbar Icon) results in a Server crash / Unresponsive Server. Restarted multiple times without any success. Waited several minutes to give the server some time, without any success. Was unable to get any logfiles before switching back to the flawlessly 1.14.0.391. Crashlogs should be submitted automatically. The phrase āLibrary scan complete: Extra information may still be downloading from the Internetā (end of Scanner Process?) never showed up in Alerts.
My Library is rather big, but never had any of this problems before. Switching back to the older preview build fixed the problem and I never had any hiccups since. Build 391 runs for days without problem and with fast response and no library problem at all.
Someone else had problem regarding Library Scan with the newest version?
I will stay at 1.14.0.391 until the next preview/beta release.
