Playback freezes and transcoder wont terminate

Hi
The server have been running fine for over a year. I reinstall windows 10 and the server, it works greate for 2-3 days, no prombems with playback.
Now today the playback freeze and wont resume. Sometimes the whole server stops working and i have to “end process” an can end all plex services ecept “plextranscoder”.
The playback error occures on the same frame on every video every time…

Got logs of when the playback stops.

I monitored cpu, temeratures, reset bios and OC, reinstalled plex server and player. Nothing out of the ordinary and nothing fixes the problem…
The same error occures even when i stream the media on plex app on my shield tv, a messege appeares and tells me the connection to the server is lost.

Any suggestions?

are you on beta?

I guess they are investigating in various transcoder problems (multiple user reporting that here) and therefore the current beta isn’t stable…
