Transcoder Failed Errors, conversion failed etc

Plex Media Server Desktops & Laptops
1

Hello. I am falling victim to the transcoder failing errors. This mainly only happens when I am viewing remotely, typically on a chromecast. I have had it fail playing on a chromecast on my local network but that is far more rare. Lately however, it is all too common when viewing from outside my home network. I have tried looking through the log files myself using some of the thing I gleaned from other articles but honestly I haven’t coded since the 90’s and I have no idea what I am looking for. If someone could take a look at my logs and tell me if anything looks out of place and offer any suggestion to fix it I would greatly appreciate it.

PMS 1.9.2.4285 running on a Windows 10 64 desktop machine.

Have been using Plex for quite sometime and these transcoder errors are a new thing to me.Plex Media Server Logs_2018-08-02_12-50-57.zip (4.1 MB)

I’ve had this issue occur numerous times after the latest update, both locally and remotely.

I’m running PMS 1.13.5.5291 on Win10x64 w/ 32gb RAM.

I have been using PLEX for years without issue until this latest update.

Perhaps post in this thread? [Windows 10 Update KB4338819 issue] Conversion Failed. The transcoder exited due to an error

Well, I am going ahead and trying that update but I was hoping someone would actually read my logs as it seems that every post concerning this issue going back for years seems to be caused by a myriad of different issues.
