  1. Or have the Docker Patch plugin installed. I know it's standard practice for some, but I'm reluctant to delete empty paths, just in case I need them in the future. My update went OK too, although for a while yesterday my libraries were showing as unavailable. Came back after about 15 minutes though.
  2. The forums are a place for people with issues to seek help - you're going to find similar incidents. If you could compare that with the amount of people where it runs just fine, you'd likely get a much better outlook. You really ought to use the help available on these forums to sort your server out as there's no way it's that unreliable. I've leaned on them several times where I've come unstuck and they've helped enormously.
  3. Read the first post in the Docker Patch support thread - should get you back up and running.
  4. Ahh, is that why I got a notification this morning saying an updated driver was available (and then when I checked, there wasn't)? Currently on 550.54.14. Hadn't noticed any issues, but rolling back to 550.40.07 for now.
  5. Many thanks for this, and apologies for the delay getting back to you. Wanted to leave it for a while to make sure the error had gone, and then forgot about it(!). I suspect Plex has also fixed the memory leak error at their end too now.
  6. Whilst this won't directly affect me (pro user), I'm a little concerned about what we jokingly call the "coming soon™" roadmap of Unraid might be sacrificed so that a release is launched to pacify those paying for a year and receiving little or nothing. Stability is paramount to me from Lime, and the bells and whistles I get from and give to the community. I don't want to risk stable updates in order to hit a schedule. I get that in recent times updates have been faster, so I might be talking out of my hat. From where I see it, it's not practical to split the system into functionality and security updates - nice idea, but I don't think it's built like that. Likewise, it won't be practical, but I'd rather be charged if I want to opt for a + .1 release rather than tied to a schedule. Steinberg have a policy of charging for major releases, with incremental ones free. If you want to leave it, you can. But you pay some more later on if you want to play catchup. Trivial for me, since I've had a pro licence for a long time, but since I've had cache drives & pools, dockers, plugins and VMs, I've often figured I ought to have paid something extra. But then what if I wanted just a NAS with the latest security patches (can of worms...!).
  7. Working from here with the same tuner (in the browser). Live TV isn't the most polished parts of Plex though, and I've had this before. Can't recall whether I restarted, rescanned for channels in the DVR section, deleted the codecs, refreshed the browser or just waited (sorry).
  8. Fix Common Problems is reporting that I've got out of memory errors and to post my diagnostics on here (attached). This also happened last week, and I rebooted and left it to first check whether it was a one-off. Any help appreciated. unraid1-diagnostics-20240122-0920.zip
  9. Refer to the pinned post at the top of this page (for me, it's the last of 3)
  10. Many thanks for this. Just to be clear, is this an uninstall / install new plugin situation, or do I wait for an update?
  11. This may need some tweaking depending on your setup, but the Codecs folder is in \\tower\appdata\plexmediaserver\Library\Application Support\Plex Media Server With Plex stopped, just delete the folder (or rename it to something like codecs_old) and restart Plex. It'll automatically redownload the latest. As I understand it, this folder may get corrupt over time and/or updates. With Tdarr, I run analyse across my libraries on Plex afterwards, since when Plex initially scans a file it grabs its info. When you play it, it starts it based on that info. If it's re-encoded using Tdarr and the filename isn't changed, Plex doesn't know that the file is different and tries to play it according to the original specs (at least I think that's what's happening). Analyse forces it to actually look at the file again. Also, I think that @alturismo was saying that turning transcode off for local files is correct.
  12. Have you tried stopping Plex, deleting the Codecs folder and starting again? First thing I do when playback gets dodgy. Also - and I'm guessing this is a no as you're playing avi files, but - have you run something like Tdarr over your media to compress/convert it? Every time I've done this I force Plex to analyse each library again to make sure what it thinks is in the file is actually what is in it. Might be worth doing that anyhow.
  13. Because mine's on a spinner drive I'm guessing that may be because I'm on a spinner drive. As such, I've set nzbget not to start subsequent jobs until the current one is finished. The drive activity of an unpack and a new download at the same time would make everything crawl (likely set when I was running WD Green drives at a lower spin rate). The only reason I've watched the file folder was when trying to work out what was going on (has it died)? Like I say, could be my setup - it's quite low spec, and I'm pushing harder than perhaps it wants.
  14. For a sanity check, are we talking about when a process no longer has a time remaining value and watching the file in the unpack folder keeps cycling from zero to full size? I'm not watching the docker, but quite often when I take a look first thing in the morning there's an item unpacking with a couple behind it, and a restart sorts it out straight away.
  15. I'm still getting unpacking issues on latest (haven't updated to the no reminder one yet). I'm also noticing that some files fail, but if I push them through again they come down fine. Finally, files seem to occasionally switch to "queued" before resuming. Could be my setup though - I'm on an old unassigned non SSD drive that used to be part of my array, and I've just migrated firewalls. The unpacking part is better though, since it would sometimes take several restarts to get it going again, now it unpacks straight away. Seemed to happen when there was a bit of other activity on the drive.
