I run PMS with the official Plex docker image under unRAID, in my logs I am seeing:

In the PMS logs it reports:

I can provide full logs via PM if needed.

Thoughts?

Hi @ChuckPa , sorry been away

So, I do not believe this is related to unRAID.

As I found in another thread you posted in, it seems that corrupted source video files can cause the video preview process to crash (I’ll try to find the link).

So, I just need to figure out from the PMS logs which video file is causing it so I can remove/fix it, can you help with that please ?

I will PM you my latest logs.

Just to repeat, these are the errors in PMS:

OK, tried to PM you but says you are not accepting message at the moment

@e10kstarfire
@urbanracer34

That should clean things up a bit

OK, looks like I am recording TV every day.

Tomorrow I’ve managed to get to a single recording so can check for transcoder exit code -11 again.

However, if I am getting failures on the transcoder, doing what ever it is doing (intro detection?), will it just keep trying again and again during each maintenance period - in which case I won’t be able to tie it down to a single recording.

I’m having similiar issues all of a sudden. In unraid I see this

And in the web ui, it shows its stuck scanning that exact file.

Did a full MEMTEST and no error reported back.

This looks like a different issue, I recommend opening a new thread.

MCE are attributed to hardware issues quite a lot of the time.

Hi @ChuckPa , at last I have narrowed this segfault to a single DVR recording.

Looking at the logs I am certain it is failing during video thumbnail detection/creation.

I will PM you the PMS logs and a link to the DVR recording that causes this.

My unRAID syslog shows:
