Hi, Had a little while to play with the new app on iOS (so glad there is support for Multichannel Spatial Audio!), but have noticed the following missing features/bugs that I didn’t see listed on the Documentation page. ▶ UI/UX ▶ Subtitles ▶ HDR/DV ▶ Codec Support & Transcoding ▶ Live TV ▶ Metadata & Logos ▶ Do…

From what I can tell, the app no longer respects the profile sent by the server. That way I can’t watch AV1 content anymore. Right now it’s just a black screen and the app freezes. Hopefully they’ll add proper AV1 support with this app, finally.

Thanks @cwin2000 I appreciate your help, and I’m glad you found a workaround for your network. I think I’ll just do the domain override for now since I only have one server on the network for plex, but hopefully a dev sees this and is able to fix it. For some reason for app.plex.tv it is able to pro…

[image] mitchellth: No matter what I set it to, my preview client seems to be trying to go to 10-27-30-23.xxxxxxxxxx.plex.direct:32400. That address doesn’t resolve anywhere. What does your custom server access url look like for the local plex server? No matter what I set it to, my preview cl…

Thanks for the reply! That actually helped a lot and got me to a real solution that I’m happy with. Turns out on Opnsense with Unbound DNS, one needs to specify plex.direct under Unbound DNS -> advanced -> private domains. I guess by default it doesn’t allow a url to bind to private addresses, becau…

I’m getting a lot of library crashes in 2025.0 build (686) that was just released. The app with constantly bounce to the “home” tab and only display Plex Provided content. And if I go back to my Library tab, it’s showing that my libraries are empty and they display with alert marks. Force quitting t…

Will the iOS-app play DV8, DV5 and Dolby Atmos Spatial Audio like Infuse does?

Something I would like to see return to the new experience is the setting for libraries to remember whether we had Recommended, Browse, or Categories selected. Generally, I only go into a library if I want to see everything I have so having it default to the Recommended tab every time is a minor ann…

Agreed. I rarely use “Recommended”

I’m not able to hear the local theme music I’ve added for any of my media. I’ve seen this reported in the android thread, but doesn’t look like it’s been reported here yet.
