Arch Linux User Repository

From what I've read in 2014 in version 0.9.10.x issues with foreign characters in subtitles were fixed. It's my second time setting up plex media server and the second time I've noticed that polish characters are not present in subtitles. Is there any known fix?

@bastelfreak: That's also why there's the statement "EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver" in the systemd startup that sets environment variables, most importantly LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Once that is set your "ldd" commands will find the appropriate libraries.

@bastelfreak: negative, plex bundles its libs, it does not use system libs. In fact, since plex server is meant for Ubuntu, using system libs in Arch will break it because they're typically much more up to date than the Debian versions which might have deprecated APIs.

Hi, plex is linked against a lot of missing libs: root@tmu /opt/plexmediaserver # ldd 'Plex DLNA Server' | grep 'not found' libboost_atomic.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_system.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_thread.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_timer.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_program_options.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_locale.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_iostreams.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_filesystem.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_date_time.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_regex.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_chrono.so.1.59.0 => not found libfreeimage.so => not found libsoci_core.so.3.0.0 => not found libsoci_sqlite3.so.3.0.0 => not found libiconv.so.2 => not found libjemalloc.so.1 => not found root@tmu /opt/plexmediaserver # ldd 'Plex Media Server' | grep 'not found' libminizip.so.1 => not found libminiupnpc.so.10 => not found libnatpmp.so.1 => not found libopencv_imgproc.so.2.4 => not found libopencv_core.so.2.4 => not found liblrc.so.0 => not found libgnsdk_correlates.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_dsp.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_fp.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_link.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_lookup_local.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_lookup_localstream.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_manager.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_moodgrid.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_musicid.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_musicid_file.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_musicid_match.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_musicid_stream.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_playlist.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_rhythm.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_storage_sqlite.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_submit.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_tocgen.so.3.07.7 => not found libgnsdk_video.so.3.07.7 => not found libboost_atomic.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_system.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_thread.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_timer.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_program_options.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_locale.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_iostreams.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_filesystem.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_date_time.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_regex.so.1.59.0 => not found libboost_chrono.so.1.59.0 => not found libfreeimage.so => not found libsoci_core.so.3.0.0 => not found libsoci_sqlite3.so.3.0.0 => not found libiconv.so.2 => not found libjemalloc.so.1 => not found root@tmu /opt/plexmediaserver # maybe you want to add them as (opt)depends?

Unflagging out-of-date. That is for plexpass version. Latest free version is 1.0.3.2461-35f0caa July 27, 2016

Media playback kept breaking for me on upgrade to anything past 0.9.17. My locale was never set up right and fixing it solved the issue on reboot. # locale-gen uncomment the following locales in /etc/locale.gen: en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 en_US ISO-8859-1 # locale-gen reboot After doing that media playback started functioning again.

@pepo900 How exactly are you starting it? sudo systemctl restart plexmediaserver? I can't reproduce these errors. I've completely uninstalled plexmediaserver, wiped out /opt/plexmediaserver and reinstalled the package and everything starts up correctly.

After the last update Plex stopped working for me too. It just fails to start with an error like: error while loading shared libraries: libminizip.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Nope, I tried many possible variations and nothing. I'm going to build a docker container and run plex from there in the meantime.

@Ploax, looks like a syntax error... Something about quotes in the service file. Maybe you copied and pasted the exec start line with the quotes? Try removing them.
