Chromecast with Google TV Live TV failing to load after Update

Hi,

Today I took the leap and upgraded to the newest PMS, 1.30.2.6563, from 1.29.2.6364. I have 5 Home members that use CCwGTV for all of their Live TV viewing and now it is non functional. We can all access the guide and open the channel to stream, but you either get constant buffering, or 2 frames per second/lag. I have no idea what caused this at first I thought it was a Google TV Android 12 issue as I have read the same complaints across this board and others, but all of these users were using Live TV fine yesterday. The update for Android 12 TV happened a bit ago. I have a Roku at my house and a Hisense with Google TV and these are still working fine. Along with my PC player and web browser.

I then went and downgraded back to 1.29.2.6364 and have the same results. This makes me want to think it is a CCwGTV, but it is strange that these issues have only popped up after I upgraded the server.

Server Version#: 1.29.2.6364
Player Version#: 9.15.0.38159
Tuner Make/Model: HDHomerun Prime
Using XMLTV?: No

Thanks!

EDIT: If I change the quality to 720 3Mbps it will stream just fine. I have a 940/940 connection in my home.

And then it error-ed out after about 3 minutes of playing. “An error occurred while attempting to play this video. Please check your connection and try again.”

After some more research it looks like Plex updated over night? In the announcement forum it said 9.15.0.38159 was released 2 days ago with a slow rollout.

How can I grab and old APK to load in the previous version?

I was able to side load the 9.14 APK and this resolved the issue. I am surprised they pushed this update knowing the issue 6 days ago.
