No "Guide" as a navigation item on Samsung Smart TV for Live TV

Server Version#: 1.19.2.2737-b69929dab
Player Version#: 4.25.2

As stated, my smart TV does not allow for “Guide” view when I’m watching live TV. Works fine on all of my other devices.

My TV is a Samsung UN55MU6290F.

I’ve already tried reinstalling the app and signing in and out to no avail.

Are you referring to guide or grid guide (i.e. like you’d see on a cable box?)

Yes, exactly.

As far as I know, Grid Guide is in development, based on some of the comments from Plex Team members. No idea what the ETA is. I was having issues too with Samsung Smart TV transcoding live tv when the TV is capable of Direct Playing (Direct Stream) them.

I see. Thanks for sharing this insight! I will await the update then.

To quote sLumpy from the Samsung TV UNO: Where’s the Guide thread, he said,

“I’m sure it’s been said before, but yes there will be a grid guide. I cannot give an ETA though, but it’ll hit most of our devices once it’s ready.”

That was posted March 25th, 2020. Again, my guess is it may be a while.

Good news.
