Issue playing 4k with Plex Preview app for Roku. These videos seem to want to transcode to 1080p. Works fine in regular.

We should have a fix coming out later today to fix the preview regression.

The preview update is available. [image] Plex for Roku Announcements We’ve released an update to the Plex preview channel - 7.30.23 NEW: Add “Go to Movie/Show Details” to trailer context options. FIXES: Fix transcoding 4k unnecessarily (preview regression).

Thanks. Tested good. On one of my rokus I still had to reset the whole roku to get it to work (prob some cache or file left behind for the plex app). Another roku worked right away.
