Hi,
Just as of yesterday I got this error message appearing. Strangely it appears on certain movies/series only. Nothing has changed in my setup which used to work fine.

I’ve been looking in the forums, where the topic was also discussed but it is not clear to me as to what causes this error and if there’s a fix for it.

Brgds,

It appears when Plex is not doing his job and don’t expect help from Plex about this ! I have that problem since ages on music play and never got any real solutions or answers about it :frowning:

mmm, that’s not so nice from Plex. :frowning:
so, how do you manage with it then? Do you have some workaround?

I suffer since months and in fact don’t use anymore Plex for music but that’s really f*cking boring :(at home I use Rythmbox (I’m linux user) accessing my music medias from Plex through a network share but that’s really not useful as tracklists, favorites, are not shared !

Unhappy yes :frowning: only little advantage of recent PMS update is that it now offers to retry and it always works again with clicking Retry (but you have to do that every 2/3 tracks, it’s extremely boring :frowning: and the new light music player is not avalaible on Linux :frowning:
