Getting really annoyed with Plex at this point. Every time I attempt to access Live TV while on a compute for an event that is being recorded I get the normal pop up for Start from Beginning or watch live. It doesn’t matter which option I choose I receive a Playback error stating “This live TV session has ended”. I can go access Plex on Roku and tune in just fine. I can watch other stations that don’t have recordings in progress from the web app. I found a similar issue that was happening in 2023. I have attempted accessing from multiple computers and with other home user accounts, but I still get the same errors. This is really annoying.
