Device: LG OLED55B3PUA (B3) webOS version: 10.2.2 Plex Media Server: v1.43.0.10492-121068a07 (Docker/Linux) Plex for LG app: 5.94.1 (5.4.0 on the lg manage app page) Since my LG B3 auto-updated to webOS 10.2.2, playback fails on almost every attempt. All other clients on the same server (PS5, we…

My mistake, the in-app version is 5.94.1. It was the LG manage app page where I saw the 5.4.0. Either way I am definitely still experiencing major playback issues when this version.

Some more things I’m noticing. I’m trying to launch a whole bunch of different media files with various video and audio codecs and I have noticed that any amount of transcoding requests triggers the error. Also if you restart the tv and load content that can be fully direct streamed, it works fine.…

Is your TV accessing the plex server remotely by chance? I am trying to figure out if I’m having the same issue as you. 83 B5 on 10.3.0 is remote, not working 55 B2 on 10.2.2 is local, works fine

yeah… I am getting Unable to find client profile for device; platform=webOS, platformVersion=10.3.0, device=webOS 10.3.0, model=86UA7700AUA.CUSYBH Still looking for a fix.

I’ve been experiencing the same symptoms for the past 10 days . Everything was working fine one day and the next day it stopped working. It occaisionally works and then just stops. I’ve had to temporarily set up a streaming box to get plex to my C5 OLED. Same messages in the log Plex working fine…

Quick Start is turned off on my TV and even after a restart it still fails to play media

From the related ‘not playing thread’ [image] Plex for webOS 3.0+ (LG Televisions) Announcements Version : 5.94.1 Platforms : LG webOS 3.0+ FIXED: Minor bug fixes and improvements Which was done on March 5

I’m convinced Plex dev’s just need to fix the device profile to allow more direct streaming on new WebOS.
