Hardware transcoding issues with PMS 1.24.x and 1.25.x? Any details on what the HW transcoding issues are and is a fix in progress?

Thanks.
I do have Shield Experience 8 still and things were fine with SE 8 (Android 9) on PMS 1.23.x till April 5th.
On 4/5 I got the new Plex player update which prevented playback of ANY TrueHD media on all devices (Android, Roku etc. - that is when the large “TrueHD is borked” thread was started by someone here). In any case, I was then forced to get PMS Beta 1.26.0.5715… It helped get clips playing again.

Today’s issue is with a combination that I rarely use, so I cannot say for certain if that worked with PMS 1.23.x or not…
But I do see a number of people saying that PMS 1.26.0.5715 Beta did NOT fix HW transcoding.

I will get the logs / check the logs later when I get a chance…
