Instability with Live TV - streams no longer start

Server Version#: 1.13.8.5395
Player Version#: All currentPlex Media Server Logs_2018-10-19_10-40-42.zip (6.0 MB)
HDHomeRun Duo with latest firmware

PMS Running on Nvidia Shield, all clients (iOS, Fire TV, Web) all result in the same outcome: when selecting a channel to view, the thumbnail appears whilst trying to display the video stream, the video stream never starts and PMS is no longer contactable for a few minutes. Non-live content (music, films and tv) all play fine.

Previously (I’ve made no configuration changes), Live TV worked reasonably well though it has never been hugely reliable, often getting weak signal errors, or unable to tune to a channel, but if I try a few minutes later works, or I get the generic “an error occurred, please try again”. The HDHomerun native app displays live TV fine.

Would be sincerely grateful if this and generally instability wit this combination (Shield/HDHomerun) could be resolved.

Many thanks.

The logs show a restart of Plex Media Server several times. It is possible that this was the low memory issues on the nVidia Shield leading to processes being killed -

Would like to know if these failures are still arising and would like to see fresh logs with debug enabled and indication as to when the connection was lost
