Plex media player freezes (locks up indefinitely) when playing certain content.

In addition, when re-loading the player, the content attempts to play again automatically which causes it to freeze immediately.

State can be cleared by deleting the Plex folder in AppData

  • Plex 1.39.1.2763-300bb607
  • Windows 11 Home 21H2 (22000.376)
  • 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz
  • Intel Iris Xe Graphics, driver 30.0.101.1003
  • Content is H264-AVC with E-AC3 audio
  • Content plays fine with Plex app on another system (Windows 10, nVidia graphics)
  • After deleting the AppData/Local/Plex folder the app starts up fine, and can play other content, but freezes again as soon as I attempt to play this particular file
  • Full log is available but after review I've seen that it contains personal data, so I won't upload it here - please provide a way to send it to you securely
  • Content plays fine in mpv-x86_64-20211219-git-fd63bf3, even with --hwdec=d3d11va

Also seems to play fine in MPV 0.33.0 which appears to be the version bundled with this version of PMP

I am also experiencing this issue. (Framework laptop)
@TomMettam Did you find a solution?
At the moment I use Plex HTPC. I restart the app whenever it freezes. And I try to refrain from using "Skip Intro" or from Seeking.
In Plex for Desktop, if you open the app and quickly press the stop button you can clear the state as well.
