I’ve had issues with crashing in the past from using hardware transcoding but have since not used it and the difference here is that it’s crashing while idle (no one attempting to stream).
I’ve just installed the latest update “PlexMediaServer-1.19.1.2589-2de7f3266-x86” and the same thing is happening. Plex Server Logs 20200401.zip (19.4 KB)
I didn’t even attempt to play any media, the crash seemed to coincide with my clicking on ‘Home’ but with my sample set of 1, that may just be coincidence.
Ended up doing a clean install - uninstalling, manually deleting installation directory & registry entry. Re-installed latest version and it seems to be working fine now. No idea what the issue was.
My Win 10 pro with plex media server 1.18.9.2578 is still working fine. I only run it on LAN and start it manually when needed , this is also gaming rig. I am wondering if maybe Microsoft updates has updated something that messing yours up. I got a bit frustrated with there updates and blocked them. I have always be a believer of if it aint broke dont fix it
