Server Version#: Version 1.20.4.3517 Player Version#: Version 4.43.4 Tuner Make/Model: HDHomeRun Connect Quatro fw=20200521 Guide/Lineup name: I don’t know how to find this Using XMLTV?: unknown Channel number/Name: 5 local Minneapolis ABC Since upgrading to this version of server, when I click on the channel number to watch the news, every time the current program ends, and switches to a new program, the current show I’m watching restarts at the point I started watching. Example: 5:15am, start up Plex web page, click on “Live TV & DVR”, find channel 5, hover over the ABC icon and click the play icon. 5:20am, pause live TV, go make a cup of coffee and some toast 5:25am, resume play back 5:30am, the current program ends, but playback restarts at 5:15am. When I try to fast-forward, it goes 5-10 seconds and wont FF any more. Clicking the \>| button to jump to next show does nothing. I have to click the X and start a new live session. This repeats at every transition from the current show to the next show. This did not occur in the previous versions of the server (1.20.3.3437 or 1.20.3.3483) ---

Upgraded PMS to Version 1.20.5.3562 Still acting the same way. Any idea how I can get a previous version of PMS? ---

I just confirmed this happens even if I don’t pause live TV. ---

Best results if you use the [Plex for Windows](https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-desktop/1.23.0.1435-e10e14cf/windows/Plex-1.23.0.1435-e10e14cf-x86_64.exe) client. There is a fix in Plex hosted version of the web app at [https://app.plex.tv/](https://app.plex.tv/) which won’t make it into the server version until sometime in the future. ---

@pl_5309; Thank you, [https://app.plex.tv](https://app.plex.tv/) indeed does not exhibit the issue I reported above. ---

Installed PMS Version 1.21.0.3616 about a half hour ago and it no longer exhibits this issue. Thank you. ---

Looks like I spoke too soon. It works fine unless I pause live TV. In that case, it still gets screwed up when the program changes. ---
