Some movies are “Unavailable” even thoough they are listed. And the ones that aren’t get “Error”.
I’m always updating the Windows server program. I have to uninstall and re-install the app on Xbox One like once a month to get it to work (most of the time I just use Universal Media Server because Plex is never working).
I love the concept of your own personal “Netlix” and I would like to buy the Premium package but the thing never works there’s always errors always problems, it doesn’t self-update so it’s always out of version.
When are you guys going to get serious and make a product worth buying?
I had my buddy linked to my Plex account he would message me twice a week “its not working” there’s always problems with it! It’s like a constant trouble shooting nightmare why is it always breaking?
I use Plex at home to pick what movie to watch, browse the covers, read the synopsis…then I have to exit out of it, go to Universal Media Server to actually play the movie because Plex is always having playback issues. All my libraries are updated, all my movies are converted to MP4 format and renamed. Plex is updated. What gives?
I understand you’re frustrated, but your posts don’t provide any useful information for troubleshooting. Close the Plex Server application, wait one minute, start the Plex Server application, wait two minutes, use a Plex client and play a media item that causes trouble. After the problem happens, wait 30 seconds, then go to the Plex Server settings -> help, and click the download logs link. Post the zip file to your next message, along with the name of the file you played.
In addition, review the naming FAQs and verify your directory structure and naming convention match what Plex requires.

See this is the sort of stuff I shouldn’t have to do as a end-user. I shouldn’t have to troubleshoot the thing twice a week. It should just “work”.
It seems like you don’t want help at this point. If you want help, follow the guidance I posted.
What is the reason for resurrecting this three year old zombie thread?
