Server Version#: Version 1.22.0.4163 (Plex server is running on Xeon 14-core CPU, 8gb of RAM, SSD, within Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) (I migrated to Ubuntu in December, I had the same problem with my Windows Server 2016 previously) Player Version#: Android TV / Shield TV Pro (latest versions from Google Pl…

One thing I didn’t mention about the NextPVR workaround that I suggested is that Plex will think that you finished watching when there is something like less than 5% time left when you stop. So if you stop then and restart, it won’t remember your position and will instead start over from the beginn…

Im testing NPVR with Kodi client. Initial quick test looks promising. When I watch a recording in progress, the scrubber timeline keeps incrementing as the show is being recoded instead of the “what is recorded so far” like Plex client shows. This way I can FF and not run into a false end of the …

Just to add my name to the list, I’ve experienced this problem the other night but on my firestick! Pressed watch from start and it just started in the middle of the show. I am seeing a number issues pop up now using my firestick that just aren’t an issue on my Roku. Certainly doesn’t make me want …

I am also having this problem: FireTV and Plex DVR. I also would like to respectfully state my frustration that the Plex team has not addresses this. It was broken for years, briefly fixed around six months ago, and now is broken again. To me, that signals an ongoing development problem. Please…
