Right, I found a way to install the previous version of Plex and now everything is back to normal. No need to change settings and everything plays as it once did.
- Uninstall Plex from the Fire TV/Stick - settings, applications, manage applications, Plex, clear app data, clear cache, Uninstall
- Whilst still in Applications scroll up to Appstore and turn off auto updates.
- Using the Amazon App Store download “Downloader”
- On the Fire TV/Stick go into Settings, Device and then Developer options and select Apps from Unknown Sources and switch ON
- Open Downloader and enter this URL Plex: Stream Movies & TV 6.4.1.1644 (arm-v7a) (nodpi) (Android 4.1+) APK Download by Plex, Inc. - APKMirror (I created this short URL from the original https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/plex-inc/plex/plex-6-4-1-1644-release/plex-6-4-1-1644-2-android-apk-download/download/ )
- Downloaded will open the URL and will throw up a Javascript error. Click ok and use the Amazon remote to move the red circle (pointer) down to click on “Your download will start immediately. If not, please click here.”
- It will start downloading Plex and once it’s finished scroll to the bottom of the page and click INSTALL
- Once installed click OPEN. Sign into Plex as usual and you will see it is working as it was
- IMPORTANT Final step On the Fire TV/Stick go into Settings, Device and then Developer options and select Apps from Unknown Sources and switch OFF
Hope this helps.
You are the best. The new app sucks
