Finding out what is causing my Smart TV streams to crash?

I’m trying to understand my logs to work out why I can no longer play more than a couple of minutes on my TV and then not log the playback time to the server.

Over the last couple of days my smart TV (the latest Panasonic TV app) can’t play more than 3 minutes of a transcode stream before crashing. I’ve been using the latest app and its predecessors for several months now and haven’t changed anything, although my Unraid Docker (Official Plex Media Server Docker Repo) does update automatically.

I’m trying to work out why. My Mac and Windows desktop play no problem, though they direct play, likewise the Android app play no problem.

I’ve reset the Plex TV app and not had much luck. I was playing a stream on it and my Mac desktop app and only the Panasonic stream crashed. Looking at the dashboard it just said “buffering” and eventually the TV app tells me it had a problem.

I transcode to my RAM and have plenty of available RAM and CPU on my server. I looked in my attached logs but can’t work out where to start to find out - any advice welcome please?

Server Version#: 1.25.0.5282
Player Version#: 5.28.2
