I’m a new Plex media server user. No problems until attempting to use Live TV and DVR. It seems when I either stream from Plex on my phone or straight to my Android TV, it drops when I’m say 30/60 minutes into watching. I’ve included logs. I know there are heaps of threads here, but there’s so many that I don’t know where to start. Let me know if there’s any other logs or anything I should include. Email replaced for obvious reasons. I also noticed my Plex bandwidth shot up to 47Mbps, which shouldn’t happen while watching SD content.

Just saw another thread too:

Someone suggested trying version 8.220.27327 as it worked ok, so I’m going to see if it produces the same result on that version. Installed on my Android TV and it seems to work better too? Going to see how well it lasts
