I go to either Movies or TV Shows to see which it has hung on, click “Cancel Scan”, and magically everything comes in and it works great. ![]() I have no notification or indication, other than getting Radarr/Sonarr had pulled items, but they don’t ever appear in Plex. But I can pretty much be guaranteed that within 24-48 hours of all working smoothly, it hangs. I’ve discovered that it isn’t just Movies. But alas, it all breaks down because Plex keeps hanging on scans. I have this incredible (I think!) process where I have scripts to download trailers for upcoming, randomly pick from them for PreRoll, add all to Radarr/Sonarr for auto-download when available, and more. Plex Media Server Logs_21-15-38.zip (4.9 Hello! The post above from 18 days ago was my first, so perhaps I put it in the wrong place. But if you want me to try something specific to try to catch this LMK. Nonetheless, I have attached the logs after scanning all libraries. But then the next day, it is snagged again. I have tried then going to “Scan All Libraries” and it zips through everything just fine, very quickly. The moment I “cancel scan”, immediately everything comes through just fine to any/all libraries. Each time this has happened, I see that the server is stuck on scanning the Movies LIbrary. I keep seeing that Plex is not updating libraries automatically when files are added to ANY library. I have tried to find something in the forums, tried scanning all libraries, logging, and looking at logs, but nothing jumps out…to me anyway. I'll have to give it a shot and see if it has any advantages.I have had an issue the last several weeks where the server gets hung up on scanning the Movies Library. It also doesn't keep track of watched/unwatched across several devices without some symlink magic.Īny time I've ever had an issue or concern, I've also gone to their chat or forums, and have even spoken with the creator of Plex on several occasions.Įdit: I just looked into Emby (I had never heard of it before) it seems it may actually be a realistic alternative to Plex in features. But Kodi is more about streaming from external sources, not internal, and is too intermittent for my taste. Except MAYBE Kodi.which is basically Plex, since they both come from XBMC bones. I have also tried most of the "alternatives" you list, and most are not even close to an all in one encompassing replacement for Plex. I love Plex, use it every single day and would NEVER trade it for anything out there currently. I have had a few "issues" over the years, but mostly associated with computers or network, not Plex. I paid for it the day PlexPass came out (I had been using it for several years before that) and I never looked back. ![]() Wow, it sucks that you've had so many issues with Plex. If all else fails, switch to DHCP to have the router assign the NAS an IP. Double check manual IP assignment to ensure all numbers match (and the IP address you reserved for the NAS is actually available and offered by the router). Should you be unable to access the Plex server on the network as well as outside the home or office, you may have a misconfiguration of your NAS, which may include discrepancies between the router or access point and the unit. How to enable remote access in Plex (opens in new tab) Cannot access server on LAN This is the required port you need to have open but others can be added (opens in new tab) for additional Plex services like DLNA. How to forward ports on a router differs between manufacturers but the details you need to know are as follows: Or you can go down the manual route by opening up a port yourself. Universal Plug and Play (uPnP) can be enabled to allow Plex to "talk" with the router and have ports and routes opened up for access from the outside world. ![]() If you're able to access the Plex server using a client on the same network but are unable to connect outside, the most likely cause of the problem is the router.
