What version of PlexPass Server is your docker currently on? Mine has been on Version 0.9.17.0 and it still says it's up to date when I check for docker updates. same with all your other dockers I use. I haven't had any updates listed for about two months now.

It's an unraid bug, updates are broken, switch to advanced view and click on the "force update" link for each docker, they are all built with latest stable.

Thanks. I didn't know about this. I was wondering what was up.

Unraid 6.2 fixed the no update issue, all my dockers were behind haha

binhex I have been using your Plex media server docker for a good while now. I have gotten myself a lifetime plexpass sub and I'm wondering is it easy enough to change my setup to be plexpass as opposed to just plex media server? dont want to have downtime if i can avoid it.

my guess would be corruption of the docker image file, try to stop docker and then delete the docker image file and re-create it, you will need to create all the docker containers again, but it really doesnt take long, if you get stuck then post on the docker engine forum section and im sure somebody will walk you through it

How do I know what version of plex is the plex pass version? It says that I am currently running version 1.2.7.2987 and it is from the plex pass docker. However I am not seeing the DVR options in the settings.

You can find release announcement for PMS at the Plex forum. Version 1.2.7 is currently the latest and is available to everyone.

 

Plex DVR releases are not available as main release or Plex Pass release. The DVR releases needs to be installed manually and are available for Plex Pass users.

Can I install the DVR version of plex in this docker or would I have to wait until it comes down to the regular release?

I am trying to get the ss-plex channel working.  It uses wget or curl to download requested programs.  

 

When downloading for watching later it hangs at 0%, but works for 'watch now'.  any ideas?  Maybe permissions somewhere?

hi binhex love your apps. just got unraid up and running about a week ago and all my media onto it...I am having an issue with any content that needs to transcode (mkv to mpg4 etc...) the service shows buffering....the client just gets spinning cirlce. I have compared transcoder settings between this docker app and the windows 10 version i was running before this. right now about 1/3 of my media is mkv and 2/3 is mpg4 so as long as client can direct stream it works. but any transcodes are failing. I placed the apadata folder on cache and disk shares. but specified the transcode folder for the disk shares. any help or suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated

this is probably the issue, i wouldnt advise transcoding to the array, if you can afford the disk space then keep it all on the cache drive, this will have two benefits, better performance as there is no parity calcs going on so write is greatly improved, and secondly you dont need to spin up your array and use a lot of power.

Hi thanks I have tried both. yesterday I moved my app data share to only reside on the cache (space is a tiny bit of an issue until i pull the SSD from my windows machine) but not a big deal.

I then uninstalled binhex plex pass and resintalled it.  logs when i tried to stream something need transcoding were odd. some about the transcoder folder with a long file name....directory cant be removed..not empty.


I'll and capture it again and  post it here.

at my wits end last night i shut the docker plex down and went back to my windows version of the server software.

the unRAID and my windows box are spec'd nearly identically. both are running Intel i7 6700K 4.0GHz quad core cpus with 16GB DDR4 ram. so processing power is likely not the issue. but one other thing about my set up has me wondering.


in an effort to minimize all the scanning once my content was on the Unraid server I copied my Plex DB from the windows PC to the appdata/bin-hex Plex pass folder. that included all the metadata i updated and cached thumb.nail for post art and write ups. it appears to work but first think i found was almost all mkv's wouldn't work locally or remotely and mp4 content was sporadic at best.  

so wondering if maybe its permissions issue too as i ran the newconfig tool to set permissions when i first encountered issues. and specific the appdata share

permissions could be one of your issues yes, it depends how you copied the files across and what account your running the container as, you can ensure the permissions are correct by stopping the container and then deleting the file /config/perms.txt then start the container again, this will force it to set the permissions to the currently defined user and group (PUID and PGID) give it 10 mins or so to do this, you wont be able to access plex until this has completed.

here is the error the logs spit out....now i have sent appdata to use only cache but bin-hex plex pass still resides on caches and 4 other disk's the mover wont move them to the cache so not sure

but this error is odd and my unix is very limited

sorry meant to post logs before I got your perms.txt post.


I have deleted perms.txt and restarted the container...waiting for a bit then will update my port forwarding in my firewall for the plex remote access and try again.


as for user being used it doesnt really say in the logs but im not running the container as priviliaged and PUIG and PGID were never changed.

i did rename my server from Tower to Thor not sure that would have anything to do with it. I also had to update unRAID to use port 81 as another container im using is in need of port 80

hmm port forwarding is not working now cannot get into the web UI for binhex-plexpass anymore. rebooted my firewall and other docker apps are working...
