[BUG] Android mobile beta 9.3.0.32892 - Live TV does NOT adjust quality automatically

Plex Players Player Betas

When watching live TV remotely (ie NOT using WiFi) Plex fails to change the quality automatically and stays on the “Remote streaming quality” you initially set. What it should do is adjust quality up or down according to bandwidth available.

This does NOT happen with anything recorded which automatically adjusts quality OK.

Android App settings:
Automatically adjust quality: on
Limit cellular data: off
Remote streaming quality: anything

Easy to re-create as per above, set any quality, begin playback then check during playback and the quality never changes.

Live TV requiring lots of bandwidth

Anyone else seeing this?

Plex support, is it supposed to adjust quality automatically when watching live TV ?

Bump.

I see this happen too. It’s always been this way. I’ve just resigned myself to never being able to watch Live TV on my phone reliably.

A real pity this, would be good if they could make it work like any other file.
