A few month ago we started a forum preview for the native version of PMS on the Apple Silicon cpu, a.k.a. the M1 and Apple fans rejoiced. Well, now we have something for you Windows fans. Introducing PMS 64-bit. Since the introduction of PMS for Windows, it has always been a 32-bit program. Fina…

Currently, you can only see “64 bit” in the primary [ server log ] Can’t you also tell by looking at task manager and see the fact that it no longer has ‘(32 bit)’ after the process name?

Not just the first. Every scan for me since upgrading has taken over an hour. I believe they’re looking in to it.

Did the upgrade to x64 in hopes it fixes other repetitive issues. Staying stable so far, but constantly spiking my CPU. My system is very strong…usually CPU usage is between 6-25%. Often getting alerts of CPU usage above 66% for more than 5 minutes. Ryzen 9 3900x 12 Core CPU, 64 Gigs DDR4 PC3600…

I saw there is a 5999 build available for 32 bit in the beta channel. How do we get 64 bit updates?

Thanks, Otto. I went ahead and did that. Just did a scan for a movie library consisting of 35k movies. It took me 24 minutes. I think previous Plex could scan it within 5 minutes.

Is it possible (if so, where are the steps) if I wanted to give up on the 64bit version and go back to an old 32bit version EXE I have backed up (PlexMediaServer-1.25.6.5577-c8bd13540-x86 worked good for me)? Un-install Plex via Add/Remove programs and re-install via that older EXE doesn’t seem to …

stop PMS and uninstall 64-bit (some Plex exe’s may still be running) restart computer to stop anything still running or check task manager and stop all Plex processes install 32-bit

Did that yesterday but wasn’t having luck (un-install, reboot, reinstall via x86). Still would insta-crash every time. Maybe there was a hung process like you mentioned I missed in task manager though. Just wanted to make sure it wasn’t irreversible or something after doing the x64 upgrade path. W…

This is a preview build so we will not be offering every build that comes out for 32-bit.
