PMS crashing

Hello
I’m posting this here cause I do not see how to make a request in forums

The new version of Plex media server released on July 24th 2023 is causing a lot of crashes on mac systems. Version 1.32.7349

There seems to be an issue with Plex transcoder within the package contents, as described in my Apple console. Please provide a fix! It’s been crashing 2-3 times a day ever since July 24th

Thank you and have a lovely day

What exact error message do you see in the console (or possibly your server logs)?

thanks for the reply,

here is what shows in the console (the important part i think anyways)

please see the users reporting the crash in the reddit post :
