Green line appearing bottom of screen on all videos (ps5

Recently all videos I watch from my server that are h.624 feature this nifty new green line at the bottom of the video. This only happens when watching a video on Plex and not any other game/app. I have the ps5 plugged directly into my LG C1.

Things I have tried thus far:

  • change ports
  • change HDMI cord
  • reboot Plex server
  • force ps5 to play at lower resolution (1080p/720p)
  • cried and prayed to the Plex gods
  • tried direct stream

Any ideas or help greatly appreciated.

I’ve seen this. Sometimes its on the bottom and sometimes on the right or left sides if the video aspect is letterbox.

As a test try and disable both direct stream and direct play on the plex for playstation app. I’ve found that the ONLY way to get decent playback using a ps4/ps5 is to disable these forcing plex to transcode. Not great but works.

I’d started a discussion a while ago on this but it was auto closed after being ignored. Since disabling the above we’ve not had any playback problem, including this green line.

Continuing the discussion from PlayStation 5 Stuttering (not buffering, stuttering) when Direct Stream / Direct Play is enabled:

I turned both off but sadly the green line still haunts me. Thanks for the idea though.
