I’ve been using PLEX for more than a year and in the last few months that I’ve increased the number of users my PMS has been crashing continuously. Initially I thought it was video card saturation, I put in an NVIDIA P2200 to test, it kept crashing. Two weeks ago I started using the HWiNFO64 progra…

@FliaCorbo I cant really be of any help with Windows. I’m a Linux engineer. What I see of your logs implies you’re using the transcoder temporary storage on another drive ? If trhat’s over the network or you don’t have access… you’ll get these errors. Mar 28, 2021 21:54:06.100 [19224] DEBUG -…

First of all, thank you very much for your answer, since there are already several posts that I have placed and no one from PLEX had responded to me. Indeed, for transcoding I have a solid-state hard drive, exclusively for storing the transcoder’s temporary files. Just a couple of hours ago PMS cr…

[image] ChuckPa: F:\Program Files\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Transcoder.exe' I see that you installed the Plex program files not to drive C: F:\Program Files\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Transcoder.exe This folder is a mere 170 MB large and doesn’t store any of the Plex data. I urge you to …

Thanks for answering my Post. I installed PLEX on a separate disk from the one that contains the Operating System because I was recommended to deposit Metadata on a separate disk… At the time I installed PLEX on the same disk as the Metadata because it seemed convenient to leave everything separat…

It seems that changing the path of the temporary folder for the transcoder didn’t help, because after having directed it to RAM it continued to crash. Just a few minutes ago it crashed again, at approximately 8:15 a.m. ERROR - [Transcode] Transcoder: Failed to delete session directory (boost :: fil…

[image] FliaCorbo: Can I install PMS in drive C: and leave the Metadata on a separate disk? Yes. According to your log, your metadata are already in F:\Metadata\ So you appear to have already made the necessary changes to the Windows registry.

Hi … I formatted the computer, installed PLEX on drive C, and stored the Metadata on a separate disk. The result is the same, a few moments ago PMS crashed with the same symptoms. I couldn’t detect the exact moment but it was around 5:46 pm. It’s the same situation that has always been presented …

Again … crashed 2 times in a row. As I’ve told you, this is the same situation and it repeats itself over and over again. I attach the most recent logs where the crashes occurred around 9:57 pm and 10:35 pm (approximately). I hope that with the logs that I’ve been attaching throughout the post, so…

Hi, thanks … I already installed the version 1.22.2.4276 I’ll give it a try and let you know how it goes. Thank you very much for the help.

Amazing … during these days since I installed version 1.22.2.4276 PMS hasn’t been crashed again. Really thank you very much … I’ve been dealing with this problem for a long time and thanks to you it’s finally been resolved. I am truly grateful, your are the best. If a new update comes out, can I …
