@bally12345 You don't use the full URL for this method.

 

You only need this part of it: https://artifacts.plex.tv/plex-media-server-experimental/

 

I am dumb! Yes changed it to https://artifacts.plex.tv/plex-media-server-experimental and it worked!
Thanks

New Test Build: 1.41.1.9065-2a572c0eb

 

Features included in addition to previous features:

 

- Colorspace fixes on mac and potentially others

 

- Fixed the dovi playback issue on android (FYI, we do not have the license to transcode dovi so it is stripped from all transcodes)

 

- Added settings for DVR transcodes to allow for more control over size/quality

UnRaid 6.12.13, Plex Version 4.136.1 (Latest version of Linuxserver.io - Plex Media Server? I've searched for updates and there are none from the developer).  Server Logs Attached.

 

I've been having problems where Plex will not recognize new movies or music being added (i.e. Scan after adding anew movie, does not update), and the search function does not return anything despite the fact there are 3000+ movies out there.  There are movies and music that display and i can play, but not recognizing new content and search does not find anything. 

 

So I stopped plex, then renamed the db and blobs.db files as in the screenshot (#1)  Essentially backing up the old databases and copying the oldest backups I have to see if they would work (#2, #3).  I restarted Plex, but now plex won't load.  This displays in the browser.  I've tried HTTP and HTTPS. I'm concerned that perhaps its a file permissions problem, but they appear to be the same (in spite of the different color in the MC display).

 

This site can’t be reached
192.168.4.100 refused to connect.
Try:

Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

 

So I restored the original files back and Plex starts as normal (still have the same issues).

 

After restoring and restarting Plex, I ran sqlite3 on the com.plexapp.plugins.library.db database, then ran PRAGMA integrity_check; but got the sqlite> PRAGMA integrity_check; Parse error: no such collation sequence: icu_root.  It appears The error "no such collation sequence: icu_root" is related to the collation settings used by the Plex Media Server's SQLite database. As I understand it, Plex uses a custom collation sequence for sorting text, and it appears that this collation sequence (icu_root) isn't available in my SQLite environment. I've run out of skillset to install an ICU-enabled version of SQLite. 

 

So I stopped plex, then tried to use the built-in Plex database repair tool, deleted the db-shm and db-wal files in the databases folder.  When I restarted Plex, it recreated these files, but search still does not work.

 

So I've passed my skillset in resolving this issue.  Cover expert ideas of what do to next! 

 

Thanks in advance...

I think my plex container is crashing my whole unraid server when the scheduled tasks start. It'll run from anywhere from 1-10 days without crashing. My whole server locks up and needs a hard reboot.

 

I've posted my unraid logs and been told it doesn't point to any issues. I tried looking up my logs for plex and theres a shit ton so I don't really know where to look.

Hi team,

Whenever I try to open the webUI for Plex from my list of dockers, I get this error (attached picture)

 

I am still able to access my Plex library by going to plex.tv and signing in, but it takes a few extra steps and is more convenient this way.
Can you advise possible issues that could cause this webUI error to occur?
Happy to provide any info needed regarding setup.

 

Thanks!

Hy guys. So i need a bit of help. I changed my gear a bit and afterwards i installed Plex binhex edition. Got everything to work, except my Haupage 4 dvb card. I tried everything, adding a new device, an old answer in this thread of adding --device=/dev/dvb/ in extra parrameters, i could not get it working. I installed the dvb driver, went with the libereelec version, i can see my dvb tuners in the dvb drivers page. I even ran, in plex(binhex) terminal the ls /dev/dvb, and my tunners appeared, but they would not load in the plex server settings, under dvr and livetv. So, after reading a bunch of post, from the plex section, from the dvb driver section, i uninstalled plex binhex, installed plex linuxservers. Now, by doing this, adding extras parameters for nvidia and vor dvb tunners, it works. My only grief is that the transcoding works on some movies, not on all - with an erros that says that something went wrong. I even waited for my media to load with everything - also read i can get errors while the libraries are updated. With the Binhex edition, transcoding worked perfectly, not a glitch, after some settings for transcoding. I even got my plex(binhex) installed on a ssd, so the media would load faster(pictures, trailers, etc.). My question is: Has anyone found a setting, or something so that i can make my plex(binhex) to see the dvb card in the plex tab/app/ip settings, or what settings/workaround is the for that the plex(linuxserver edition) to stop giving me errors when i try transcoding? If you guys say i should post this in a different part of the forum i will and i ask for your help because after5 years of linux/unraid i think these forums are filled with people with great knowledge. Thanks in advance, and sorry for taking up your time. If there is need for more information, I will give it. Thanks!

I would suggest post questions regarding the binhex docker in that support thread.
