Wow this thread is uh…something
Since there is all this negativity let me add my experience as someone who has used the xbox app since day one
Direct play - old app had terrible issues with having to reencode almost everything especially if you use subtitles…now one of my most consistent Direct stream clients
New UI - works great and take very little time to relearn how to use - being able to jump to remote servers under each type of library without having to switch is great for people who use more than one server
Issues - mostly the remote issues others have reported…rewinind and play/pause sometimes don’t trigger from remote commands and you need to instead pull out a controller to pull up a network
There does seem to be ui/art load in lag issues but they don’t follow any patterns so difficult to nail down
Thanks for the plex employees and ninjas for engaging on this thread
