Please post Plexamp logs because without them it is very hard to even diagnose such issues.
I’m not seeing this behaviour myself.
Some things come to mind:
- don’t let your hard drives spin down their platters when idle
- Let the server run during the scheduled server maintenance hours
- Check if the DNS resolver (usually located in your router) of your local network performs “DNS rebinding protection”.
If you can, tell it to exempt the domain nameplex.directfrom this protection. - Check the main Plex database file for damage:
- activate debug logging (not ‘verbose’!)
- quit Plex Server
- wait 1 minute
- start Plex Server
- wait 5 minutes
- fetch log files and attach them here
Or inspect them yourself. Take a look at the Plex Media Server.log file and seek for messages about database corrupt or malformed.
If you find these, you may have to repair your database.
