Hi all....

 

I've been running Unraid for years and it's been really smooth...to the point that I'm old and I can't remember how to fix most problems.

 

The first symptom was that Plex was been unable to transcode due to full memory. Ran fix-common-problems-plugin and get this:

 

 

Followed the steps, ran diagnositics (attached) and this:

Results attached as well.

 

Please help, I really appreciate it!

It is the Plex transcode folder that is using nearly all the space.

Thank you!
I saw that as well. Do we know why now Plex is using all the space (it's supposed to only be a tmp folder for transcoding) now as I've been using Plex for year now without filling it up. Is it supposed to "auto-empty" or something?

Have a look inside of that Plex transcode folder and see what is there.  Look at the dates on things and do come analyzing of what you find. 

 

Once you have some information about what is happening, the place to be asking questions about your Plex setup is the support thread for it.

This is an excellent point, Frank. Thank you. I'll investigate and report back.

 

Thanks again.
