This with the new app?
Correct.
Thanks for the log. I do see where the player appears to be in a loop between playing and pausing. Iām not sure whatās causing this but Iāll pass this along to the devs to take a look.
I think it actually might be even worse than before, which is amazing.

Live TV stops every few minutes for all channels.
Live TV is broken on the Android app. Starts in a paused state on the Firestick. Buffers off a PCI tuner card for no real reason. Guide doesnāt advance forward by itself as time changes (XMLTV). Player constantly tunes to different audio streams. Stream pauses when pulling up the guide. Canāt play from beginning. Parts of the guide fail to load unless you scroll down and then scroll back up (mobile).
bump @anon18523487
mine always buffers too, even on the new beta 8.28. do you guys ever actually fix anything? why are you charging people money to use live tv?
if anyone is having the same problem you should get a refund for your plex pass and switch to emby. theres no issues with live tv on emby.
heres my client logs like youre going to even bother to look at them

Wanted to update this thread as well. Plex Live TV is garbage with constant buffering, exiting to the guide, and numerous of other issues, stream dies⦠etc. I have moved all my users off and onto Channels. Channels has 0 of these issues, there is no buffering, no streams being killed. It doesnāt make sense and has been like this for two years now and getting worse and worse.
A big WTF to this engineering team.
Youāre absolutely correct if youāre using the Android app. Itās a hot mess and has been for over one year.
Apple TV also has an issue where it just exists to the channel guide after the channel buffers.
I have a build that includes more logging to help try to identify the issue. If you are willing to and know how to sideload this and test, PM me.
PMād.
Live TV & DVR unable to connect when remote watching on the plex android app outside the network, this issue has happened after the updates, I donāt get why update something that isnāt broken, even after the update Lost my server connection so I had to recrate everything back from scratch. which is an headache.
When using plex on a browser Live TV & DVR work fine its the android app thatās the issue
bump.
