Heya Folks,

    I loaded a new plugin that is working on my other clients but only audio on Rasplex (5.0.1), I enabled debug and found this:

Maybe the stream is MPEG2 and you don't have a license installed on your RPi?  I have seen some posts that suggest that the HDHomeRun outputs an MPEG2 Transport Stream (.ts), the video and audio contained in there is whatever the broadcaster used.

Note that plugins bypass the Plex Media Server and feed streams directly to your client, so you don't get the benefit of transcoding etc.

I am going to try to load the codecs, that as great idea... 

I saw an article talking about the architecture and they talked about double transcoding support, both the homerun server and plex... the HDSurfer uses the silicon dust app and proxy's the media through the server... i am going to see if there is any documentation on the proxy itself about what codec it is outputting.

Knight! Solid advice, got it working after finally figuring out where berryboot stored the working config.txt.  Greatly appreciated!
