- Seriously? I was watching this very episode yesterday and many others from the same season without problem, in the same browser.
I have just got into Plex and am using the current official Freenas plugin with Plex Version 4.34.4, no plexpass, just within my LAN and in the browser. 11.3-U1, Intel i3-6100 and 16 GB RAM. After install I put as much as I could to maximum and it worked great for a few days, but today I am running into the above problem.
I don't understand why Plex suddenly wants to transcode? I am using the recommended 'home streaming' setting where the media is just transferred to the client as is if it is playable by the client. It's an oldish xvid/avi 352p resolution so it really isn't heavy or anything. I saw somewhere this this combo can be problematic.. but I was watching it yesterday!?!?
I also have other episodes from other series that are half-played, where Plex asks me whether to start from the beginning or resume playback where I left of (super-proof that Plex has played this file before) but whichever I select Plex complains that the server is not powerful enough to convert the video.
What might be going on here?
Quality I have tried both to set and unset the 'automatically adjust quality' setting.
'Transcoder quality' is set to Automatic.
Hi, I have done my best to configure my plex (running on a pi 3b+) to offload the transcoding tasks (which it obviously sucks at) to my other more powerful machine(s). I have created the following. That may be the plugin version and not the Plex version, the current version is PlexMediaServer-0.9. I just remembered OMV only works with Wheezy and Wheezy has an older version of libc6 (2.13) that is incompatible with newer versions of PMS (requires 2.16 or 2.19 IIRC).

Plex The Server Is Not Powerful Enough
Plex Media Server Error
This used to work without any problem, until a few months ago. Movies streamed through Plex started to skip, pause and delay, giving me the message the server is not powerful enough to stream the media smoothly. Instagrid free. I am not sure why this happened, I thought I would need te reinstall my server. However, after doing so, the issue still remains.
