I noticed that 6.8.2 was available after I was fixing my server last night. After pulling the diagnostic and restarting I upgraded. I just removed Nerd Tools as well so I'll see if the problem repeats itself.

I've had this problem since I updated to 6.8.0 and now with 6.8.1. My server runs about a week before the gui freezes up and becomes unresponsive. I ran versions before 6.8 for about a year and never had this problem. I've attached a diagnostics file. You can ignore the UPS errors, I unplugged it to plug in a keyboard for troubleshooting. Version 6.8.1 Hardware - GIGABYTE - GA-7PESH2 - Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 v2 @ 2.60GHz x 2 - Samsung Memory M393B2G70QH0-YK0 16GB DDR3 1600 ECC Registered 1.35V x 8 - LSI2008 8x SAS/SATA - Silicon Power 1TB SSD 3D NAND A55 SLC Cache Performance Boost SATA III 2.5" 7mm (0.28") Internal Solid State Drive (SP001TBSS3A55S25) - Cache Drive - Western Digital 10TB HD - 1 Parity, 3 Data Plugins - Community Applications - Unassigned Devices - CA Auto Update Applications - CA Backup / Resore Appdata - Disk Location - Dynamix ssd trim - Dynamix System Information - Dynamix System Temperature - Dynamix wireguard - Fix common problems - Nerd Tools - Preclear disks - Statistics - User Scripts Docker - Binhex krusader (not running) - binhex minecraftbedrockserver - bitwarden - duckdns - emby - firefox - handbrake - JDownloader2 - letsencrypt - mariadb - MKVToolNix (not running) - Netdata - nextcloud - openvpn-as - pihole - plex - QDirStat (not running) - tautulli - unms (not running) VM - Linux (not running) - Windows 10 (running) diag.zip

Went down to one nic and the problem continued. I setup Kodi on the Shield to directly access the file shares on the Unraid server and that seems to work without any isssues. Looks like something in Plex. I try to troubleshoot more this weekend.

I'll try taking it down to one nic and see what happens. I am getting 120MB transfer speeds when pushing files to the server or pulling them off from my Windows PC so I thought I should be good there. Sometimes I'll go an hour without an issue, sometimes it happens every couple minutes.

I just moved my plex server to unraid and am having issues streaming 4k material to a Nvidia Shield now. The movie will start but it pauses multiple times. Usually it just freezes for a few seconds and then starts again. Occasionally I'll get a message saying "the server isn't fast enough". This problem did not exist when I was running the plex server on a Windows 10 PC. Both the Shield and the unraid sever are wired into a gigabit switch. The shield shows that it is using direct play so it isn't a transcoding speed issue. The unraid server specs are: Gigabyte GA-7PESH2 E5-2650 V2 x 2 128GB ram 1TB SSD cache drive 10TB Western Digital parity drive 10 TB Western Digital data drive x 2 Both nic's on the motherboard are plugged into the swtich and set to bonded active / failover. I can post this in a gernarl plex forum but since everthing worked great when I had plex server running on a Windows 10 PC and the issue only started when I moved it to an unraid docker I thought I would start here. I've looked at the logs and haven't found anything useful but I may not be looking in the right place so if logs would help, please let me know which one to post.
