PMS Console filling with data/errors

[JKJS16]

Server Version#: 1.25.9.5721
Player Version#:

I am running PMS on a mac-mini M1
Media is on a Synology NAS

My PMS Console keeps filling with data some of which look like errors.

How can I determine what is causing this and how I can fix it?

I have attached a few screenshots of the Server Console. Regarding the SSDP error related to 192.168.2.7. That device is an LG Washing machine. Not sure what to make of that - why would Plex be connected to or polling a washing machine?

I’d appreciate any help on getting to the root cause of what I am

seeing.

Thanks.

You can ignore the SSDP parsing device errors.

Plex Media Server, like many applications, uses SSDP to discover devices on the network.

Occasionally a device replies in a format Plex cannot understand. When that happens, PMS logs it as an error.

It is annoying, as it fills the log files, but it will not cause problems with Plex.

The SSDP messages in the logs are meaningless. Not all SSDP-responding devices provide their reply in XML. Some use a hybrid form while others use JSON. Those messages in the logs are: harmless can be ignored because PMS is overzealously reporting them just so you are informed (in case you’re wondering why PMS didn’t find your device).
