And fuck. I really miss plex. I've had Netflix and Hulu forever as family won't let me cancel. Decided to sign up to Paramount + for some Trek. Twice in lower decks it didn't save my watched episodes. Doesn't mark episode as watched if you exit during the credits. And multiple playback issues.

Wanted to add no ad Disney to the Hulu for some Doctor Who. Only the add supported is available through Hulu. So I'd have to cancel, wait for the month to end and sign up via Disney. Deal with ads or pay almost double the duo plan costs, or include ESPN, and honestly fuck sports.

What is so difficult about just providing a decent service for a fair price? Why is plex like a decade ahead of the streaming UI's? I'm trying to give you fucks money and you're making it extremely difficult.

Not to say cannibalize but perhaps one night just test their parts on your board or vice versa to figure out what component in yours has bitten the dust so you can understand what you need to replace and budget/save accordingly.

Hope you get it sorted soon, friend. I couldn’t live without my Plex server.

If it's not the GPU I'm almost positive it's CPU or mobo. It's hard locking anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour. No heat issues.

I've fresh installed windows 10, 11 and tried pop os. Pop froze twice during install. Disconnected everything except the ssd, GPU and a single stick of ram. Update bios. Tried both sticks of ram individually in slot 2 where it's supposed to go and slot 3, which still freezes and tells me I'm a dumb ass for not reading the manual for ram location. Tried installing windows on a hdd. Ram memetest86, sfc, ssd check through the bios etc.

Wish my CPU had onboard graphics to narrow that out, but I'll try the old GPU I have. At that point I guess I could throw my CPU in the kids pc and see if there's issues, but will probably just buy a mobo and see.

Also look at the memory of you haven't already - run memtest

Yeah, that was one of the first troubleshooting steps. No errors. Also tried each stick individually. Confirmed the GPU is good as well. Ordered a new MB to try next.
