When I run plex at up-to-date Arch I am getting following crash. Any ideas what can go wrong?

@Palshife sure, submit a PR at https://github.com/hv15/plex-media-player-standalone-service and I'll merge :). Thanks for you help!

I hacked on this a bit to perform an xset to prevent screen blanking. What would you think about incorporating that?

@HakBaRT no problem, done

Is it possible to get the package marked as working with the ARM-architecture? (armv5, armv6 and armv7)
Thanks in advance...

@garwalk thanks for spotting that problem, could you try release 5 and see if that fixes it for you?

This assumes the directory /usr/lib/plexmediaplayer exists, but it's never created. So when attempting to start this service Xorg will crash because it can't write to /usr/lib/plexmediaplayer/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log.
I had to do the following to get PMP to launch with
systemctl
:mkdir -p /usr/lib/plexmediaplayer/.local/share/xorg
chown -R pplex:pplex /usr/lib/plexmediaplayer

@FallenSnow thanks for the feedback, I never considered someone wanting to run both the server and player on the same machine. I've change the plex player user to
pplex
. Let me know how it goes...FallenSnow commented on 2018-07-01 17:34
This service causes issues if it is installed on a machine with plex-media-server. Both services use the plex user but try to use a different home directory. Changing this service to use user plexplayer seems to alleviate most of the issues.

### Notice ###
If any user is having problems with PMP not appearing on screen - it is likely due to this: https://github.com/plexinc/plex-media-player/issues/470. The basic workaround at the moment is to call PMP with `--scale-factor=1`.
I am not sure if it is worthwhile to add this to the SystemD service file, what do you think?
## EDIT 05/04/2017
If you are experiencing strange UI sizing, try setting `--scale-factor=1.5' (the UI is scaled to 720p per default when it can't detect the actual screen size).
