I am trying to change my Plex account. I signed out from account #1 from the unraid docker and tried to sign in from my account #2. Somehow, this does not work and it does not allow me to use the existing database on the Unraid docker. I used to be able to do that, but forgot how I did it. Something around a message "PMS found an aborted database, do you want to adapt it". Not sure how I can trigger this though. Currently I am getting the following message after starting the server. Any thoughts? "Looking for servers" with spinning ball on top-left. In middle, "get your plexserver" and "download plex media server". Thanks!!!

Hooray, thanks for your help! The permission change solved my issues. Now, all movies are playing well. Let me also switch the transcoding directory directory though. What's the default folder on the SSD to use? I know probably everything works, but I like to keep default (and not create unnecessary new folders if not needed).

Thanks. Do you think this may cause my issue?

Let me give it another try. Attached the mount on Unraid command line. Also the docker run command below: root@localhost:# /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker run -d --name='plex1' --net='host' -e TZ="Asia/Shanghai" -e HOST_OS="Unraid" -e 'PUID'='99' -e 'PGID'='100' -e 'VERSION'='latest' -v '/mnt/':'/data':'rw' -v '/tmp':'/transcode':'rw' -v '/mnt/cache/Docker/PlexMediaServer/':'/config':'rw' 'linuxserver/plex' <removed> Unraid mount.txt

Great, thanks. Will do and send. What you mean by upload? put in a word document and attach the link? I don’t think i map any disk in unraid. i’m mapping them individually in plex. I forgot why, but there was some advantage of mapping them individually rather than through one user share. Are you suggesting user share may be better. On separate note - i use ram to transcode, but realized this is drawing quite some ram. when transcoding two streams, this impacts my VM and leads to crashes. wanted to change it back to transcoding via ssd. how to do?

I right-clicked on the plex docker and selected “console”. if that’s the wrong one, where can i find the right one?

Thanks for your quick reply. I have entered "mount" at docker console. Is this what you suggested? Result: https://pastebin.com/mp9kKNRz

Plex on ATV has been very unstable for me. The Plex developers have replied and it seems to be an issue of the docker or how I've set it up. Please see the reply from the develop below: I have asked for clarification, but also like to check on this forum as this may be easier to answer from a docker perspective. Thanks for your help as always!

I am facing an issue with playing some movies in the web player. Did some research and it may be an issue relaxed to the linuxserver docker, while claimed to be working in the official plex docker. I haven't tried to switch to the official docker, but at least that's what they are saying in the plex forums. https://forums.plex.tv/t/eae-timeout-eae-not-running-or-wrong-folder/189661/3 and https://forums.plex.tv/t/error-transcoder-ac3_eae-0x2fd4f40-eae-timeout-eae-not-running-or-wrong-folder/189917/33 both state that it works with official docker. The issue is not with all movies, but with some. I cannot identify a pattern, which ones are working and which ones are not. For those it doesn't work, it does not work consistently. Snippet from the log below: Dec 02, 2018 09:25:33.948 [0x14e78ebff700] DEBUG - MDE: Movie (2018): media must be transcoded in order to use the dash protocol Dec 02, 2018 09:25:33.948 [0x14e78ebff700] DEBUG - MDE: Movie (2018): no direct play video profile exists for http/mkv/h264 Dec 02, 2018 09:25:33.948 [0x14e78ebff700] DEBUG - MDE: Movie (2018): no direct play video profile exists for http/mkv/h264/eac3 Dec 02, 2018 09:25:33.948 [0x14e78ebff700] DEBUG - MDE: Cannot direct stream audio stream due to codec eac3 when profile only allows aac

Do you have two GPUs? It's weird, but I never got it to work with two GPUs. When I removed one, it worked ok.

Great, thanks, after the shutdown, all works well. I have a small question. I am now using basically all of the NVME, but I guess a few GBs are unused. I have a 1 TB disk and using two VMs with 750GB and 250GB respectively. By what amount do I need to increase to make sure to fully use the disk. I know it doesn't really matter, but I found it nicer and cleaner to go to 100.0% usage rather than 99.99% usage. Is there some command to do this?

I didn't get it running, so went through a full fresh install. Worked well and Mojave is up and running. Having said this, the mouse cursor doesn't move well and it is hard to get to certain part of the screen. I remember I had the issue before and somehow fixed it, but cannot remember how. Any thoughts?

Thanks. I saw similar advice in another forum about creating a Clover bootable iso (https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-cant-access-bootloader-as-in-clover-fast-boot-mode.228285/). Unfortunately, I have no clue how to do this. Would I just create this based on the most recent Clover ISO with something like Etcher? And then put it under "OS Install ISO" in the Unraid VM settings?

Any idea of the key to get into the clovershell (I disabled it via fastboot)? Some sources say just to hold down any key, but this is not working for me. I can get into the OVMF bios, but that's not helping. I need the clovershell to fix my black screen issue. Any thought appreciated!

What Plex client are you using? The Apple TV client seems quite buggy. Transcoding works well for me as long as I stream from IOS, but the ATV Plex client has some bugs. Would be great if you can help pile on the threads below (also incl. logs): https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-atv-client-transcoder-not-working/315221 https://forums.plex.tv/t/issue-where-when-opening-app-back-up-is-stuck-on-last-show-movie-and-wont-go-back-to-home-screen/224083

It seems there may be some solution to boot into clovershell by using an external USB flash drive. No idea how I can do this within Unraid though? Any thoughts? And what version of clover shall I use for the flash? https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-cant-access-bootloader-as-in-clover-fast-boot-mode.228285/

Same issue here. I increased the vdisk size in Unraid UI. Capacity shows increased, but allocation remains at the "old" size. I went to "disk mgmt" and rescanned, but the additional space does not show up. Any thoughts?

I am facing a new issue. Things used to work, but somehow it stopped working. When playing from my ATV, I get the following error message: "Playbacl was terminated by the server. Conversion failed. The transcoder exited due to an error". Any thoughts?

Thanks, this seems related, Unfortunately, I have disabled the clover shell at startup. Can I still trigger it via some key or otherwise?

I think I bricked my hackintosh... I was using High Sierra. All worked except some Photos crashes. But largely all fine. I now just updated to Mojave from High Sierra. All seemed fine, but upon restart, I get the Apple screen (with loading bar) and then turns into a black screen. Is this the black screen of death or anything I can still do to trouble-shoot?

Thanks. What is the difference between "output0 watts" and "total watts"? Are there also other "output1/2/3/4/5"?

I am running a MacOS High Sierra VM. Everything seems to be working. However, I am facing one issue. The Photos App seems to work, but after a while always crashes. Error message: "Photos quit unexpectedly". Anyone experiencing the same? Any thoughts how to trouble-shoot?

You are a star!!! It is working now, thanks! GPU load is 138 watts and PSU load 170 watts. What is GPU load? Do I need to add both of them add to understand how much power my server is consuming? I.e., 308 watts in my case?

Fantastic, thanks! Let me try shortly and report back. Would be great to have this working. I really like the idea of the plugin!

I passed the USB through to a VM and can confirm that Corsair Link works inside a Windows VM providing me with PSU data. So, the PSU and cabling are not the issue, Any idea what I can do to get this working with Unraid / Unraid plugin? Thanks in advance for your help!
