Freeze when starting video, "static"-like display - Rasplex 9.9.20 + PMS 0.9.9.7.429

Hi,

 

Rasplex 9.9.20 + PMS  0.9.9.7.429 on Xubuntu 12.04 fully patched

 

Intermittent problem, occurs especially when I leave the RPi for some time, then navigate to TV and select and episode to play, a freeze will occur at the point the video starts playing (e.g. after menu, but no video ever starts). The on screen image is... well... I can only describe it as digital static... so I included a photo below.

Only option is to remove the power supply and reconnect.

 

I think this started occurring when I upgraded (near simultaneously) to the Rasplex and PMS version above. Tried formatting the USB stick and reflashing a fresh Rasplex image, no change.

 

Will test more when at home and try to get logs.

 

Any thoughts?

EDIT: Problem occurs on all videos.

 

EDIT 2:

Tested affected videos on Plex web interface and using Chromecast, both are fine.

Any workaround ?
