Android app randomly stops / skips while streaming

I’ve been running into issues with streaming on my Android device recently where in the middle of streaming, the app will either jump forward 5-10 minutes or it will stop the current stream entirely. Most recently I was streaming a TV show and with more than 10 minutes left in the episode, the stream suddenly stopped and the timer to autoplay the next episode began. I have uninstalled and re-installed the app and the issues persist. Below is a snippit of the logs from when the issue occurred., but I’ve attached the full logs.

I’m having this same issue now. Are you still experiencing this issue? Were you ever able to resolve this?

For now I’ve had to relegate myself to Kodi with the Plex addon, which isn’t ideal for me.
