Plex Transcode issue.

  • Hi,


    hopefully this is the right place to throw this (Wasnt sure if here or in the Docker Sub)


    Im having some teethig issues with OMV with Plex. I previously had a QNAP NAS and it wqas getting on a bit so I decided to build from scratch, after a failed attempt with FreeNas I got OMV up and running and installed Plex within Docker/Portainer However it seems some of the media wont play (That previously played on my old NAS)



    In the Browser DevToolsI get a load of errors


    Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)



    GET https://x-x-x-x.a80be1d7571443e68120cef238b01301.plex.direct:32400/video/:/transcode/universal/dash/cnrjkng4qzkttrrrhp91ba46/0/initial.mp4 404 (Not Found)
    (x-x-x-x = my local server LAN IP)


    Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED


    The Matching logs in Plex are

    (X-X-X-X = my PC im playing Plex from)


    It feels like the Transcoder cant do something with some file types (avi + MKV) but I have no idea what as it worked perviously and I really dont want to have to rerip all my media again!, ive checked permissions and the account im using in Docker should have access to all the folders/files in the Plex app folder.


    Ive attached three images of media one that plays fine and two that dont.






    Not Working


    Working




    Any ideas would be really appreciated


    Also side note? Is OMV 5 actually beta as when I installed I just went to the downloads and grabbed the latest version thats highlighted at the top and I didnt see anything about beta, doesnt seem very idiot proof (it got me after all!) if thats the case

  • I dont think that your browser errors are relevant here. And I am not sure your problem has anything to do with OMV. I think you should ask for help in the official Plex forum (https://forums.plex.tv/). Your complete plex logs are going to be useful. These screenshots rather not. All necessary information should be in the plex logs.

  • Turns out it was nothing to do with plex and I was on the right path with permissions, just needed to dot he following (just in case anyone else every has this)


    nano /etc/fstab


    find the volume/Raid array that Plex app/container is living on and remove noexec from it.
