Suddenly I can’t play a thing on Plex. Not from any client, not from the server. Every bit of video returns the error, " Sorry there was a problem playing this item." I have the latest versions of the player and the server. Debug logs don’t seem to reveal the issue. I did a reinstall of the server and still no help. Running windows 10, running plex for at least 4 years now never seen this before. HELP - logs attached
Thanks, Itzak
One of many found in the server log:
May 28, 2017 01:42:45.276 [2748] ERROR - SQLITE3:02A350EB, 11, database corruption at line 63365 of [fc49f556e4]
Sounds like you need to go to:

This is an excellent step-by-step on hopefully recovering your database
Thanks that was it, all fixed and back in operation. BTW do you have any idea why many videos that will play via the network on my TV will not play via the plex app? The start and freeze sometimes the sound continues with the video frozen.

Which Plex app on what device?
The latest Plex for android on a Phillips 4k tv model 40put6400.
I have had a few problems like this after reinstalling my FreeNAS.
One was that somehow I managed to clear a checkbox so the
file system was not mounted.
The SmartTV apparently used its “cached” data and found “programs” that were
not playable.
Once I fixed that, some programs would not be found, and the reason was
that the permissions did not have the executable bit set, or had the wrong
owner:group.
This is not the issue that I’m having. These videos play if launched in Plex on the server but not on my Phillips Android TV. No change to settings in PLex on either end helps. I upped the network to a 1GB switch and Cat7 cables. Still no joy.
However the videos play fine on the TV if I connect to Plex server via Kodi, or via the sources panel in the TV. Just can’t play them in Plex
