In recent weeks Plex has started to become unreliable again on Android TV. If a user is a public user and has not signed up for beta please don’t bring the beta issues to the public. There’s a reason why they don’t want to be beta testers. I wish Plex would start to have more stable public builds and leave the bugs in beta for a while until fixed! Examples,
Mi box s 9.0
•New video player does not work (or android 9.0 in general)
• Minimized video, how do you reopen it without having to scroll back through the guide to click on the channel?
• Random picture pixelation, on some channels constant & unable to watch. Works fine on HDHOMERUN app
• When watching live TV and turning the device off it keeps that tv station in a freezed state on the server. This starts to create weird issues after hours of being in the Frozen State. Even with the terminate session after certain amount of time of being paused enabled.
• When turning the TV and box back on from standby it states that it has lost connection and it’s hard to get the TV guide and data to come back up. The retry button once again is not working right.
Nvidia Shield non tube versions,
• Random rotations of death. Channel won’t initialize.
• Audio on live TV goes in and out for up to five minutes before stabilizing.
• I like to call this to everybody freeze error. This was fixed but has recently come back as an issue in the past couple updates. When a live TV user starts TV intermittently will cause everyone on the server to freeze for a second.
Firestick 4k,
• Just a headache in general. Audio and video quality problems for quite some time now.
Speaking for myself being stuck at home, sometimes I just want to watch TV and not have all these issues. I wish Plex would come up with a list of devices that they fully support and believe they won’t have issues on with a public build. So maybe put on the back burner the Samsung refrigerator Plex app or the toaster app & lets come up with a list of devices like the Nvidia Shield, Roku, Mi box, firestick and one other to be fully supported by Plex with minimal to no issues.

Error ( not my picture but same saying)
User Joanne, Channel still shows it’s playing but the device is off and as you can see it gets stuck with the show that it was turned off on. It’s 10 a.m. not 9 a.m.

By the way I do love the new Plex Dash app!!
