Plex Arcade Error 8011

Server Version#:1.21.2.3939
Player Version#:
I cannot get my loaded ROMS to pay. I see them in my library. When I try to launch them I get Playback error The core mapping is missing or invalid Error Code 8011 (Game Setup)

My roms are in a shared drive on my UNRAID server. I have a VM running on a Hyper V host where plex is running. I have edited the xml file that is located in %LocalAppData%\Local\Plex Media Support\Plug in support

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Mappings>
<Mapping
    platform="Super Nintendo Entertainment System"
    core=snes9x_libretro.dll"
/>
</Mappings>

My game cores are loaded in to %LocalAppData%\Plex Media Server\Game Cores I am currently using SNES9x.libretro.dll as I have seen other users state that this core is working for them.

Edit forgot to attach log filesPlex Media Server Logs_2021-01-27_09-02-51.zip (7.7 MB)

Try the following:

  • After core= the core name should have an opening quotation mark (perhaps that was just a typo?).
  • Leave the .dll out of the core name.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Mappings>
 <Mapping
  platform="Super Nintendo Entertainment System"
  core="snes9x_libretro"
 />
</Mappings>

Holy Cow that fixed that error. I had tried it with and without the .dll Now however I am getting Network Configuration Prevents directs connection to game session Error Code: -6200 (Network) Im gonna turn off the firewall and see if that helps

Check the server; the first time you attempt to stream a game it should show a dialog asking you to allow traffic from the game transcoder. But yes, disabling the firewall should also correct it.

PLaying it back on the Plex Server itself spits back "Playback Error. A critical error occurred. Error Code 6 (unknown)

Firewall is turned off and this me trying from the actual plex server. It had me hopeful too because I saw the Super Mario World Background this time.

I’ve not seen that one myself. However, this reply makes some suggestions for correcting it:

Thatll do it. Running this in VM on an HP DL380 Gen8 built for speed not graphics. Thanks for all of the help. But alas like many others im cancelling the subscription and gonna go build a RetroPI

I still have this error? Cores are all in correctly, but still getting the core error. I’ve deleted & put them back in still errors… :man_shrugging:t2: I have all cores setup like above pics, running Windows 10. I even had a friend (who has it working) check mine & he couldn’t figure it out either.
