Two Servers Running v4.10.0.40 Media Scanning Stuck, Consuming RAM

[HouseOfCards 119]

Good evening,

I am about to do the update that is available to see if it fixes this, but I wanted to capture the logs in case it doesn't and report it...

Two servers running in UnRAID Docker Containers have started consuming RAM.  The logs show repeated errors, as if something is stuck in a loop.  They both have frozen progress for "Scanning Media Library".  Everything seems to be working, no signs of failure, except for the RAM usage slowly being eaten.

It looks like the plugin AudioDB is failing.

I would remove that, and see if that helps you move forward.

And Emby can't finde the webpage at AudioDB

Not sure if this is a AudioDB web-server issue or if they have changed paging format.

Yeah, I saw...  There is a 4.10.1.0 available.  I'm gonna upgrade to that first, and see what happens.  This usually uses about 4-5 GB of RAM, and it has slowly increased to over 17 GB which is why I even noticed.  I just wanted to capture the logs for the issue in case it's a bigger thing.  TheAudioDB is kinda important to my metadata.  I'll try that as a last resort...

Thanks!
