**Plex Media Server 1.15.0.647 is now available to Plex Pass users in the Beta update channel**

This version contains numerous changes and a lot of invisible behind the curtains stuff. There a few caveats and some missing builds at this point:

Notes:

- **Thecus Builds for Thecus devices** will not be available at this time. Thecus is working on a firmware update that allows the new PMS to run on their devices.
- **Docker** If you are running our PMS docker container (or [Linuxserver.io](http://Linuxserver.io)’s container) you will need to ensure the container is up-to-date before PMS 1.15.0 will run.
- **Nvidia SHIELD** builds are slightly delayed and will be available on Google Play store once QA testing has completed.
- **RedHat/CentOS/Fedora** Plex Media Server now only supports running on systemd-based versions of these distros. In addition, CentOS 6 is no longer supported due to an incompatible GLIBC version (PMS on Linux now requires GLIBC 2.14 or newer)
- **Ubuntu** We now have official ARMv7 and ARMv8 deb packages.
- **QNAP** Plex Media Server now only works on QTS 4.3 and newer. This means that we no longer offer Plex Media Server for QNAP devices with 32bit Intel processors.

See our “[Changes for QNAP and CentOS support in Plex Media Server](https://forums.plex.tv/t/changes-for-qnap-and-centos-support-in-plex-media-server/375580)” post for additional details.

NEW:

- (Linux) Support for Ubuntu/Debian ARMv7 and ARMv8 platforms.
- (NAS) Support for ASUSTOR, Synology, and QNAP ARMv8 devices.
- (NAS) Support for hardware encoding on QNAP Intel/AMD 64-bit devices with a discrete Nvidia GPU.
- (NAS) Support for volume selection, and app migration on QNAP devices.

FIXES:

- (DVR) Avoid a few crashes around parsing bad JSON from OnConnect (#8889)
- (DVR) Avoid caching EPG HTTP cache requests for longer than the refresh time (#9629)
- (DVR) Avoid downloading XMLTV files to disk before parsing (#9272)
- (DVR) Certain scheduled recordings would incorrectly show an error. (#9325)
- (DVR) Change the way Plex Tuner Service returns keys for TVButler devices, especially on macOS, to properly handle using multiple TVButlers on the same system. N.B. This is a breaking change for users of TVButler devices. Those users will need to delete and recreate their DVR to use the new device information. (#8760)
- (DVR) Disk space checking underestimates the necessary amount of space when starting recordings (#8807)
- (DVR) Ensure grab operations get destroyed after a tune fails (#9465)
- (DVR) Fixed a bug where changing recording priority would not update the schedule. (#9035)
- (DVR) Log which device we’re allocating a tuner from
- (DVR) Output signal strength/quality information into log periodically during tunes (#9503)
- (DVR) Plex Tuner Service now properly detects when a transcode session exited due to signal failure and releases the tuner (#9174)
- (DVR) Revert timeout changes, should help with timeouts during tune startup (#9473,
- (DVR) Translate Guide header for clients to display (#8698)
- (Library) Library summary endpoint should report the correct duration for large music libraries (#9223)
- (Live TV) Fix for intermittent tune failures. (#9412)
- (Live) Avoid delaying video playback while leading audio plays (#9343)
- (Music) Restricting music libraries with labels could prevent them from loading. (#8935)
- (Scanner) Add support for reading Opus metadata (#5974)
- (Transcoder) Seeking in DASH streams could be unreliable (#9137)
- Corrected rare crash involving accessing User data (#9464)
- Removed some remaining uses of plaintext HTTP (#8958)
- The server could crash when TV media was being deleted. (#9350)
- Updated translations
