Live TV "preview" (on the guide screen) stuttering and then breaking Live TV [CCwGTV 4K]

Server Version#:
Server Version#: 1.31.1.6733
Player Version#: 9.17.0.38861

This applies to the Chromecast With Google TV. I have multiple CCwGTV devices around the house, most of them forced to the 9.14 version due to Live TV breaking in 9.15.

I can see that 9.17 has been released and this fixed the main Live TV issue.

However, I have found that I can watch Live TV fine - but if I hit “back” on the Google remote to return the guide, the live preview becomes a jittering mess.

If I then load up that channel, the Live TV is still the jittering mess. I can exit Plex, restart and it’s fine again.

Video here showing the behaviour: Plex's "Live TV Preview" on the guide screen breaking Live TV - YouTube

00:05 I tune into the TV channel, it plays fine
00:15 I return the guide, the preview video is very buggy
00:22 I return to the Live TV view, it’s just as buggy as the preview video

The channel in question was a Direct Stream: 480i (MPEG2VIDEO), English (MP2 Stereo).

NOTE: 9.14 doesn’t have this issue.
