I’m not exactly sure when it started happening, but it must be somewhat recent.
I happened to check sync status of a TV show where I sync the next 10 unwatched episodes and noticed that on the Conversions settings page it says “Waiting” for all the items. I tried pausing the conversion and resuming it after a few seconds and it seems to start (even telling me the rate at which the file is converting), but then it goes back to waiting.
Opening the player’s sync page and clicking the refresh button to check for sync status doesn’t seem to make a difference, either.
I have tried removing that job and trying another one, but that has the same result.
I have restarted the PMS and it doesn’t unstick the conversions.
Immediately after posting this, I was planning to post my logs here when I thought I’d take a look at them first. I found the following messages recurring in the log at random intervals:
database disk image is malformed
database corruption at line XXXXX of [xxxxxxxxxx]
That led me to this article from a while ago regarding corrupt databases:
Which led me to restore the database from a backup:
