When starting Live TV, the player suddenly stops and returns to the Live TV menu. This is repeatable whether I choose a show from the guide or start a channel from the What’s On tab. It happens sometimes after only a few seconds or after a few minutes. Looking at the logs at the time of the last cr…

@ferrarispider360m_yahoo_com Don’t download APK files from there when you can get them from the source, just scroll up for older apk versions: https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-for-android/29115/370 Also beta releases can be found in this thread: https://forums.plex.tv/t/release-announcements-android-…

How did you get 8.12. version software? I check the google play store on my phone does not exist I got it straight from the Google Play Store. It could be that the APK for your device hasn’t been updated yet, or it could be that Plex are phasing rollout of the new APKs - mine was dated 26 January…

Can you tell me the name of your Google device? All my devices are set up for auto-updated? Can you provide a screenshot of your app from the Google play store?

I have a Google Pixel 3. Here’s a screenshot of the app information directly from the Play Store. [image]

Pretty sure 8.12 got put onto Google Play and then was reverted back to 8.11 because of all the problems.

I uninstalled Plex from my device so I could downgrade to 8.6 for testing. Then I uninstalled that and went back to the Play Store yesterday evening and the screenshot is what was served up to me.

Yes, that’s what I meant. At the moment, it’s 8.11 on Google Play. They reverted after I posted all over the place about the problems. 8.11 sucks too if you use Live TV/DVR but at least video playback works.

MovieWiz is correct they remove the 8.12 version. Have you try the 8.11 version with no new player option yet?

Update on for everyone Install the newest version of software 1.21.2.3943 on my Linux Debian box. Bad news everything went back to Playback Stops Suddenly not good. To get everything back working had to reinstall the older software 1.21.1.3876 restart the Linux box then restart each Chromecast dev…
