Plex Media Server 1.40.2.8273 is now available to Plex Pass users in the Beta update channel.
NEW:
- (PLEASE NOTE) Please also be patient when updating to this version if you have a very large database and allow the upgrade process to finish.- Rename ‘un/played’ to ‘un/watched’ terminology for video types (PM-1042)
- We have identified an issue where automatic updates were not respecting custom paths for existing Windows 64-bit installs. Unfortunately, any automatic fix would introduce security vulnerabilities so we encourage users who installed in a custom path to uninstall and then manually reinstall Plex Media Server.
FIXES:
- (Auto Update) Custom install paths are not respected when auto-updating on 64 bit Windows. (PM-1143)
- (CreditsDetection) Retry detection only a limited amount of times on failures (PM-1093)
- (DB Optimize) Server could become unresponsive during a DB optimize in certain circumstances (PM-1129)
- (Loudness Analysis) Some files could cause errors when preforming Loudness Analysis. (PM-627)
- (Push Notifications) Used expensive DB query during playback progress notifications (PM-1166)
- (Thumbnails) Thumbnails were not properly updated when underlying file changed (PM-1162)
- (Transcoder) On Windows, headless (no display attached) Nvidia cards were not recognized (PM-962)
- (Transcoder) On Windows, the first Intel device was used for transcoding regardless of which Intel device was selected (PM-962)
