[BUG] Play next 10 sec countdown goes to further episode

when playing a show and it ends showing the 10 second countdown before playing the next episode, after the countdown it does not play the next episode but it skips ahead. for example, I finished episode 1 and it does the countdown for episode 2, at the end of the countdown it skips to do a countdown to episode 3 without even playing episode 2. I am using nvidia shield 2019 pro 8.1 firmware and latest plex beta version 8.6.0.20097.

I have uploaded 20 minutes of log that should show the countdown skipping error.

Your logs indicate you are using the old video player. Please turn on the new player and see if you get the same result.

Edit - nevermind. I was looking at the wrong thing. You are using the new player.

I am using the new player and that new pre play thing as well, if that matters.

I see something. I’m not sure it’s a bug but I will discuss with the team and see what they think.

Wondering if there has been an update regarding this?

Hello. This issue is still present in the latest beta.

Hi there :wave:

Sorry for the delay, are you now using beta 8.7.0 with the new post-play experience and still seeing this issue?

Thanks for reporting :slight_smile:

Hi. Yes, I am still getting the issue on version 8.7.0.20568

It’s on random shows. I have set up plex for my parents to stream and they get an issue on another show. It’s a weird bug, and I did uninstall or uninstall updates and clear data on shield 2017 (what my parents use) and issue persists.

I still get this issue from time time. Wondering if there had been updates regarding this.

@anon18523487 and @daioio any update?

Can you provide me the current PMS and Android app versions you are using?

I’m getting this error as well, when I finish an episode and push back on the remote during the end credits the next episode window show up. If I push the “ok” button on the remote to watch the next episode it skips that episode, mark it as watched and show the next episode in line.

If I watch episode 2, push watch next on episode 3, it skips episode 3 and mark it as watched, then show episode 4 as watch next.

Latest server and Plex Android Sheld TV player.

Apologies for the delay. Currently on the latest plex server and almost latest beta version for Android app. I probably an update or 2 behind the latest beta Android app.

I need actual version numbers please.

Edit - Actually, we don’t need any more info. We are working on finding a solution.

I’m getting this on Android tv as well when at the end of an episode and the next episode screen comes up while credits roll, if I hit okay to play the next episode it skips ahead to the last few minutes of the next episode as well. Infuriating. I used to also get the entire episode skipped, but now that seems to be replaced with this latest behavior.

Seems like this bug is back. Before on the 8.17 version for Android tv plex app, when the countdown finished it would play the next episode. Now on thr beta version 8.18.0.25559, after the countdown finishes the screen goes blank and the next episode of a tv show does not play.

Can you reproduce and get me new logs? Play a file, jump to the end, wait for the counter. There was an old issue that was fixed a while ago. I can’t reproduce this myself.
