I've avoided spinning up a new Ubuntu host on 16 or 17 as that is more effort than it's worth.Īt this stage i'm going to have the leave the server on windows until i find an issue or Plex identifies an issue on their side.

I gave up lastnight and spun the Plex server up on my windows host - 0 issues, videos play back fine. Impacting all browser types (running window 10), tested on two clientsĭoes not appear to impact native apps as bad Tried a different docker repo (plexinc/pms-docker/) + linuxserver/plexĮnabled Debug logs, cannot see anything obvious Re-deployed plex completely (removed the docker image and data) Played around with Plex Transcode + Direct play settings Snap is already installed and ready to go.

I've run unto an issue where almost all media on Plex will play for ~2 minutes and then just hang in a buffering state, i've tried everything i can think of and im out of ideas If you’re running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or later, including Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa), you don’t need to do anything. I migrated all the docker containers/data across. I recently rebuilt my server using Ubuntu 18 as my base. I've been running Plex server in a docker container for over a year now.
