Good morning, I recently installed the plex server, but the system is closing all the time. This installed the latest version of plex.
I do not know what to do, migrated from Emby to the plex because the plex did not crash using on my tv.
Can anyone help me or tell me what I am doing wrong?

Doesn’t anyone have a solution?
Please disable verbose logging, delete your logs, and after the server crashes wait 3-5 minutes and post a new set of logs.
Seems to have a lot of error about reaching server… port is open on your router?
Restart Plex Media Server after changing from verbose to debug level logging. Plex now requires a PMS restart when lowering logging levels (undocumented, but added a few months ago).
Settings → Server_Name → General + Show Advanced
Plex Documentation → Your Media
→ Movie Files (Naming and Organizing)
→ TV Show Files (Naming and Organizing)
Not the cause of crashes, but you will need to rename some of your media files for Plex to pick them up correctly.
Oct 12, 2022 22:40:33.393 [9180] VERBOSE - Adding file for scanner: "Q:\Emby\Desenhos\Attack of Titan\S01\O Som Do Coração Batendo.mkv"
Q:\Emby\Desenhos <-- Folder added to TV Show library
..\Attack on Titan (2013) <-- ShowName (year)
....\Season 01 <-- "Season" in English, two digits for number
......\Attack on Titan (2013) s01e08 O Som Do Coração Batendo.mkv <-- sXXeYY mandatory
Show is “Attack on Titan,” not “Attack of Titan.”
Oct 12, 2022 22:40:33.820 [9180] VERBOSE - Adding file for scanner: "Q:\Emby\Desenhos\Boku no hero\S02\[DragsterPS] My Hero Academia S02 [1080p] [Multi-Audio] [Multi-Subs]\[DragsterPS] My Hero Academia S02E07 [1080p] [Multi-Audio] [Multi-Subs] [A9E7C7CD].mkv"
Neither TMDB or TVDB list a show named “Boku no hero.” Both list one show titled “My Hero Academia”
Plex does not support nested directories like you are using for this show. You will need to reorganize as shown in the Plex documentation.
Q:\Emby\Desenhos
..\My Hero Academia (2016)
....\Season 02
......\My Hero Academia (2016) s02e07.mkv
If you wish to keep the comments regarding resolution, etc. Place them after the sXXeYY in the episode name.
My Hero Academia (2016) s02e07 [1080p Multi-Audio Multi-Subs].mkv
If you need to rename many files:
Many people use Filebot. It is quite powerful and can rename an entire library in minutes.
Tiny Media Manager is also very useful, and free.
TMM Renamer Patterns:
- Show Name:
${showTitle} (${showYear}) - Season:
Season ${seasonNr2} - Episode Name:
${showTitle} (${showYear}) s${seasonNr2}e${episodeNr2} ${episode.title} - Movie Name:
${title} (${year}) {imdb-${imdb}}
PowerRenamer in Microsoft Power Tools is helpful for simple renaming with pattern matches or regular expressions. It makes quick work of tasks such as adding a year to file names, removing undesirable text from multiple files, etc. Simple example: Rip a TV show with MakeMKV and all the episodes have _tXX at the end. You can remove it from all episodes in just a few seconds.
Yes, the doors are all open.
This having to rename the files because they don’t have the correct metadata, I don’t think would have anything to do with the server crashing. It has no relation whatsoever, that even if I leave the server stopped, without scanning the files, PMS closes continuously.
If it doesn’t find the file details, I would have to leave it blank and in the future I would add the data manually.
Correct. That is why I wrote, “Not the cause of crashes…”
I was just letting you know you will have to rename and restructure some of your media files for Plex to correctly recognize them.
You still have to honor Plex’s directory structure.
Plex does not read embedded metadata from MKV containers.
I don’t need it to read the metadata, I just need it to stop the automatic closing. It closes even if I’m not doing anything, no one is watching, no media scanning.
