Plex spinning circle of temporary doom

Featured Replies

Hi. I'm using the linuxserver plex docker with unraid 6.9.2.  Often when I play a tv show or movie, plex will show the spinning orange circle while it loads the stream, and then just stay there. Stopping and starting fixes the issue every time. 

 

I don't believe this relates to disks spinning up as the orange circle will sometimes sit there forever until stopping and starting, at which point the show immediately starts.

 

I have added a second cache drive for recently added media (tailored with the "mover tuning" plugin) on the assumption that this related to disks spinning up, but it doesn't seem to have solved the issue.

 

If anyone has ideas about what I could try to fix this it would be much appreciated!

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue. It just started happening after i updated the docker a couple weeks ago.

Similar issue here.  Not sure what has changed to cause this.  Seems to be affecting my 4K movies more than the 1080p ones. 

Prior to this everything was working flawlessly for some time.
