Server Version#: 1.26.0.5715  
Player Version#: Plex Web

I am watching a 1080p movie that is being audio and subtitle transcoded.  
I am pausing the playback for ~30s and then resuming. It seems that something goes wrong with the transcoder and it either stops transcoding or gets very slow for some reason, resulting in the video stopping and buffering.

I have to stop and restart the movie.
