Plex Media Server Crashing Daily - SOLVED

So a TL;DR here is this:

I run Plex Media Server within Docker and it was crashing daily; when it would crash, somehow it was also either taking down my entire Docker server or somehow hamstringing it causing other weird issues Docker-wide (don't ask me, I have no idea how, but it did).

After looking through the PMS logs I kept seeing something along the lines if this (note that the numbers 1.40.0.[etc.] are just the PMS version number and will change over time):

Directory Opus Help? Want to create menu item to calculate 2 file size differences.

I have a large Plex library that I rip my own BluRay movies to, and I've been playing around with various video ripping and encoding software. I often get files that visually seem pretty much identical, but have varying file sizes. sometimes I include different audio tracks, different subtitle languages, and other stuff, but I am also trying to keep the library from using as much hard drive as possible. Every little bit counts! Smile

Is there a quick way in Directory Opus to calculate the size difference between 2 files?

Plex Media Server: How To Update Your Libraries and / or Optimize Your Database

A very quick "How To", to show you how to immediately do a library update and / or optimize your Plex Media Server (PMS) database (library), through Plex.

  1. Made some changes to your Plex folders outside of the Plex interface, such as recently added files, movies, music, or whatever, and need to have PMS see them NOW instead of waiting for it's scheduled update check?

  2. Want to make sure your PMS library is nice and cleaned up, running fast, not using up unnecessary bloat on your hard drive, etc.?

Plex Search Broken - [Solution]

Plex Media Server Search Doesn't Work. No Search Results.

Symptoms

I've recently run into a long lasting problem with my Plex Media Server (PMS), where doing any search, be it in the PMS web interface itself, or any of Plex's apps, would always end up with "No matches found." Even if I was looking directly AT matches right on the screen, with my very own eyes (which are still pretty good, I might add, even at my age. Wink ).
