just after the latest update, playback to the LG TV app no longer work, plays a few seconds then jumps back to title screen, but the same will play on all other media, iPhone, iPad, Windows, Osx

I am having the exact same problem. I’ve tested a few different video files and the only ones that I found that played were MKV files. Both AVI and MP4 load and immediately stop as described by @jattilab

I’m hoping that a future update to the PMS and/or the LG (Netcast) app fixes it, however if anyone has a workaround in the mean time I’d love to hear it. I’m using a chromecast as a workaround at the moment but I like to use the native app…

Had the same problems with 1.4.1.3362 on the LG Netcast platform, no problems with the WebOS Platform.
I revertet back to 1.4.0, has any of you tried the new 1.4.2.3400 ?

I have the same problem with certain files running for a few seconds then stopping. It’s the same on 2 LG TVs. Hoped today’s update would have fixed it but it does not. Having to use a roku stick but means more remotes and time. Can plex be put back to previous working version?

Reverted back to 2 updates ago and all is well. Do Plex admin read these posts or are we left to work thongs out for ourselves?
