Version 1.18.5.2309 crashes whenever a samsung tv connects

Server Version#: 1.18.5.2309
Player Version#: 4.12.3

My server updated to the current plex pass build last night. Since then when a samsung TV connects it forces the server to crash. Any help is appreciated.

That’s the latest beta version. Try rolling back to 1.18.4:

And set your Server to update Public channel instead.

I’ve tried that. No change. Any other ideas?

I disabled hardware transcoding and that seems to have fixed it for now but thats not really a long term solution.

Still irrevocably scarred by the trauma he endured as a child at the Overlook, Dan Torrance has fought to find some semblance of peace. But that peace is shattered when he encounters Abra, a courageous teenager with her own powerful extrasensory gift, known as the ā€œshine.ā€ Instinctively recognizing that Dan shares her power, Abra has sought him out, desperate for his help against the merciless Rose the Hat and her followers, The True Knot, who feed off the shine of innocents in their quest for immortality. Forming an unlikely alliance, Dan and Abra engage in a brutal life-or-death battle with Rose. Abra’s innocence and fearless embrace of her shine compel Dan to call upon his own powers as never before—at once facing his fears and reawakening the ghosts of the past." viewCount="3" lastViewedAt="1580332371" year="2020" thumb="/library/metadata/37880/thumb/1580235860" art="/library/metadata/37880/art/1580235860" duration="11117365" originallyAvailableAt="2020-01-21" addedAt="1580082102" updatedAt="1580235860">

ok, thanks, does not seem to be related to another potential problem on a different thread.

If you can reliably repeat the crash, I would recommend gathering logs like this…

ensure that debug logs are ON, verbose is OFF

Same issue here

What Samsung model is that? And what version of Tizen?

I’ve got an Samsung (UE55KS7005) causing deadlocks from time to time. Currently monitoring server with SNMP (tcpCurrEstab.0) and waiting for number of connections to rise over X so I can get a push notification and grab the logs and connection list (/connections?X-Plex-Token=XXXXX) before it’s too late and server is completely unresponsive.
