PLEX has been randomly crashing for several weeks. Initially I thought it was due to saturation of the simultaneous transcoding sessions but I already verified that it didn’t because it also crashes with few transcoding sessions … I have changed the video card, I’ve formatted the server several times, I have an independent disk for the PLEX transcoding and another exclusive one for the METADATA, I’ve really searched many places for the cause and I don’t know what it could be … pleeeeeaaaaaaaaase help me Attached the logs of today March 13 where it failed twice, approximately at 9:45 pm and at 10:45 pm #### Version 1.22.0.4163 AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X 24-Core Processor 3.79 GHz Nvidia Quadro P2200 [Plex Media Server Logs\_2021-03-13\_22-50-06.zip](https://forums.plex.tv/uploads/short-url/v4lAbYduRpxh4uroxggWFbsSzhy.zip) (7.6 MB) [Plex Media Server Logs\_2021-03-13\_21-50-30.zip](https://forums.plex.tv/uploads/short-url/GVauUTatjvhYaueRbLKE3AFNmn.zip) (7.4 MB) ---
