High CPU Usage by minimediad

Post by sumant0ib »

HI Team TOS is reporting very high CPU usage.
Looking at this system monitor processes I can see that the process is called "minimediad".

My OS is on the latest TOS 4.2.08 and model is F4-220
please advise

this i believe is the DLNA multimedia server, either playing content or generating its database of files it can serve

i assume you have this application installed?
F2-210

4.2.43

Is your device model F4-220 instead of F4-210?
This process is the process of multimedia services. Are you using other software to play or scan multimedia files on TNAS?
Will it last 100% or will it decrease over time?
If you are not using the multimedia service CPU for continuous 100%, please contact our support team.

@TMRyan: My device is indeed F4-220.

@Sianderson :I uninstalled the DLNA server but can still can see the process.
I do have plex server installed though.

it does not decrease over time.
One of the cores is constantly over 90% and overall system usage around 50%.

Thanks All,

I have this resolved now.
The DLNA server was still installed, I uninstalled the Multimedia server.

CPU is now at 9-10%

Many Thanks for all the help.
