Sorry to re-open this, but I’ve been getting these segmentation faults now with PMS 1.18.4.2171 when doing media scans of a music folder. I’ve noticed for months that, frequently, albums added to Plex show as multiple “albums.” Not always but sometimes. See my thread here. Today, I was just looking through dmesg and found a bunch of segmentation faults for the Plex Media Scanner the times of which coincided with adding new music content to the scanned folder:
Jan  5 10:59:33 banjopotato kernel: [382627.061071] Plex Media Scan[30392]: segfault at 308 ip 00000000004eac14 sp 00007fffccb69d50 error 4 in Plex Media Scanner[426000+3fe000]

Jan  5 10:59:51 banjopotato kernel: [382645.905601] Plex Media Scan[30444]: segfault at 308 ip 00000000004eac14 sp 00007ffeb12f1ee0 error 4 in Plex Media Scanner[426000+3fe000]
These two phenomena seem to be related and started happening sometime in September/October 2019. I keep the PMS software updated on the server. So whatever this problem is, it isn’t resolved by the most recent versions.
