ibsailn Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 New to unraid. Ran a test machine last week with unraid 5 and had plex working fine on this same hardware. Started with a fresh V6 install, reformatted drive. So far just have 1 drive (3TB) hooked up and still on trial version. Drive formatted XFS. Shares work fine....just have a little data loaded so far (testing before I transfer data over from spare HD's and load them into the box. Installed Plex via docker -- gave it 10GB image (default). Created share dir "Plex data" to house library and transcode files Following paths: /video /mnt/user/video/ /config /mnt/user/plex data/ /transcode /mnt/user/plex data/transcode/ /photos /mnt/user/photos In plex I created libraries from /videos folder which worked fine and in settings defined transcode folder at /transcode folder defined above Library works fine and thumbnails and data are saved in the "plex data" folder. One laptop will play the videos fine, but my main machine (hooked up to TV) won't play any videos -- just get and endless spinning circle. Not sure if this is a server problem or a client problem Any ideas what I am doing wrong. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Looks like you have misspelled Transcode in the Container Volume. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Looks like you have misspelled Transcode in the Container Volume. Doesn't matter as long as its also spelled wrong within Plex (Transcoder temporary directory) Quote Link to comment
ibsailn Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 I think that was just a typo...sorry...I tried attaching a screenshot, but couldn't get it small enough.... I think I have sorted it out to a player problem. If I shut off experimental player and direct stream options in advanced settings of the player, it seems to work fine. Not an unraid problem....just a plex/laptop problem. Thanks for the help anyway. Quote Link to comment
