Jellyfin server v12.0 RC2 release

[Graeme]

these announcement threads are usually ignored and should not be used for troubleshooting

Fair enough, and noted for the future. Although I did ask for troubleshooting tips, my intention was more for discussion with others testing RC2. As it turns out I suspect this is entirely my own fault and probably not an issue with the release at all. I ignored this advice:

Note: If you install the RC, you should **disable all plugins** and reinstall using [the unstable plugin repository](https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server...positories), or plugins may fail to load and cause unintended side effects.

And I believe that the TMDb Box Sets plugin was causing the server to crash.  The logs showed a MissingMethodException when that plugin was triggered causing the server to restart regularly, meaning that the server never ran long enough for some tasks to trigger. I have now disabled it and am waiting for sufficient time to pass to see if all those tasks now run as scheduled.

I post this as a cautionary tale. Don't be a Graeme. Follow the advice provided by the folks who know what they are talking about.

Is there a RC2 for Synology NAS, would love to be a tester for it?

Your best bet is Docker container. I have been using it for years with Synology NAS without any issues.

With SkiaSharp Version 4.150.0 just released as the new stable version, will JF 12 be incorporating it, or staying on 3.119.4? or 3.119.3?
