June 21, 20233 yr Setup an unraid server a month or so ago. Have had plex setup via linuxservers docker and it's been running great with zero issues. All of a sudden for the past day or two plex just refuses to play anything from my server (but can play from others). I've restarted the docker a bunch of times, updated it today. Still can't get anything to play. I can get to plex server settings/dashboard via unraid. When i try to play an episode it shows up in the dashboard as playing (episode time progressing) - but nothing is actually going. With me being new, what are the first few things that I should always try if I have a plex issue? Screenshots here demonstrating episode playing. https://imgur.com/a/yUQrgrX
June 21, 20233 yr Author Solution Deleted the entire contents of the codecs folder which seems to have done the trick for now. Edit: have had to do this once or twice, has always resolved the issue. Set up a script to delete the codecs folder once a week and so far the issue hasn't occurred since. Edited July 17, 20232 yr by TheMarf added info
