It started happening after I upgraded to this version and I have no clue how to troubleshoot this. I turned on debug log (since the logs are pretty small - I also removed usernames)
To clarify when I try to stream something, randomly the stream just sits there acting like its buffering, but clearly nothing is buffering (since there is no barely any cpu used by plex during this time). I can access everything else, but cannot watch any content till I restart.
I optimized the database, but that makes no difference (I already do it weekly). During the hang I’ve noticed the following about the host machine:
no cpu bottlenecks (cpu is less than 10%)
tons of free memory
no smart errors on any disks in library
plex db’s are on an ssd
The only thing that seems to fix this is a complete restart of the plex container
You should be able to specify a version tag and use a different version to confirm it is version related. And maybe once a new version comes down the issue will work itself out.
I have a similar problem, Plex losing remote access. Restart returns to normal, works for a few hours and loses connection again, any suggestions? Everything worked fine last month.
