Server Version#: 1.25.6.5577 Player Version#: 8.31.0.31102 I note that the most recent player update for the Nvidia Shield supposedly improved payback of Dolby TrueHD, however the complete opposite is what you have achieved. Any MKV with TrueHD, whether playing the TrueHD track or the embedded AC…

Seamless branching problem with F9. If you backread a bit, there are other people who experience the same.

Yep. Still broken on my end too. New update did nothing to fix the TRUEHD issue. VLC also does not play it correctly so. It’s definitely Nvidia.

Plex Client 9.1.0.31883-beta Nvidia shield 9.0.2(33.1.0.319) (PRO) PMS 1.26.0.5715 Having studering and dropouts with this latest beta as well. Current release is botched, but prior release was working (mostly, although who knows as was dealing with the Android 11 issues). Last Night in Soho is…

I’m just gonna chime in here also. I think there were two different reports of symptoms of frozen playback. (As it’s mentioned in the release notes) However the one where seeking causes a frozen frame and no audio and yet an active playback timer is still there and probably quicker to reproduce.

[image] TYRANTII: Last Night in Soho is a good example, studering all throughout the opening credits and opening scene. It’s late here. I will test that movie out in the morning.

Anyone with the seek/freeze issue try the latest beta from today yet? BETA: Player: prevent seeks from freezing playback.

If I recall you had the same issue as me. Seek too much. Frozen frame. No Audio. Active timer? If so it’s still broke. And yes that’s on the beta you mentioned with the fix from earlier today. If anything it’s more frequent.

Not me, as I don’t normally seek/ff/rw. In fact, I haven’t had a single playback issue since the initial 9.1.x beta, but I realize I’m in the minority :slight_smile:

Ah right. It’s still there anyway. But to be fair I think I’m in the minority.

I have searched for an entire day. How do you upgrade your shield to 9.1.0? Mine says it’s up to date at 9.0.5.
