I have a TV Show that airs every weekday, this season has ~170 episodes this season so far. When I click on the most recent episode from “On Deck” it goes to the season highliting episode 1. If I then attempt to scroll to the right if I am not careful it will automatically wrap back to episode 1. I cannot “navigate left” to get back to the end, so instead I have to carefully scroll through 170 episodes to the right again.
even after selecting the episode from the list, I regularly fail to get the correct episode to play.
The system seems completely incapable of handling large numbers of episodes per season. Old app did not suffer from any of these issues, though obviously there were fewer episodes last week.
starting from the home page, try selecting the Movie category with the arrows on the remote instead of the magic remote’s pointer. By doing the former, you get a toggle to switch between the different categories - super unintuitive
THIS SHOULD STILL BE IN BETA - CERTAINLY NOT FORCED
The new interface is awful looking, posters are way too big and too spaced out. Dark background was so much better than this cheap looking lighter grey. No scroll wheel navigation! Down nav not across on a 16:9 ratio screen, what are plex thinking?? Click click click my thumb is killing me. Takes longer to render posters than before even after optimising the database etc. Doesn’t remember list order preferences. Navigation is hard work - did I say that?! Not to mention…startup is temperamental to say the least. Please can we downgrade!!! I really don’t want this bloatware. It was so brilliant before this update. PLEASE CAN WE ROLL BACK?
Like many other has stated; the latest release is totally garbage and making Plex unuasable!!! This release is nowhere near finished and should be put back to the drawing board for a total revamp.
I can live with the new ugly interface, but the things that frustrates me the most is the following;
That I cannot connect to my server without having to re-link/ reset the app
How slow this version is compared to the old one
The buffering icon coming up just a for a split second ever so often, when I actually am able to connect to the server.
How this release was forced without informing!!
Rollback to previous version is a must. Why fix something that don’t needs fixing…
I’m having issues as well and desperate for a fix. I watch nearly every night and haven’t been able to watch whatsoever since the update. I have an LG 4k television and virtually my whole library is 1080p and I’ve never had a singe issue in the past, but now it buffers for a fraction of a second every 10-20 seconds, and every two minutes or so it entirely crashes and says something about “conversion failed” in regards to transcoding.
I’ve reset the tv and reset the pc application. Both are up to date. Absolutely no options have been changed since before this app updated itself without my approval. This must be rolled back.
Out of curiosity, in the seven week period that the v2 app was available for testing (or early preview if you prefer) how many of you tried it out? And of those who did, how many of you raised any concerns/issues with Plex?
It’s absolute shXt, even worse than the old version. XPlay is what Plex should have been. Just accept that Plex just don’t give a fXck and pay the 7$ or whatever for XPlay.
Had H4 error a couple time. was able to play movies on other devices. reboot the nas and tv solved the problem in most cases.
i have a new issue. my subtitles are disabled in the menu, but they still show up. it works on other devices without subtitles. how can i fix that? really annoying.
and setting serverip manually solved a few connecting issues. still slow but at least working.
design on 55" issnt so bad and a few nice features, but tooooooooo many bugs
