Issues with Optimization and Playback errors

Hi Everyone,

To preface everything, I am not very tech savvy and would appreciate step-by-step instructions on how to execute possible solutions or providing certain logs so that I can get a diagnosis on the issue. I also just got the Plex Lifetime Pass and was hoping for direction on how best to utilize it.

Issue#1
Whenever I click “optimize” on a movie, it stays stuck on “converting” at 0%. I hear the fans on my laptop whirring a lot faster so I’m assuming it taking significant processing power but with no results.

Issue#2
Whenever I attempt to open these ‘unoptimized’ files on my Roku TV/NVIDIA Shield, these movies stay stuck at 33% and eventually get this message popping up, “multiple playback errors”. Other smaller files open fine and play on my Roku TV and NVIDIA Shield.

I am operating the NVIDIA Shield on a different WiFi network as compared to my Roku TV and laptop. My laptop is attached to an external hard disk that contains all of my movies. Using Windows 10 laptop.

Best,
NC
