Server Version#: 1.41.4.9463 When using my Nvidia Shield to optimize any file, I’m not able to play it back. It completes the optimization process but when I go to play it back I get a generic error. This has been happening for quite a while. I’m on the latest server version. I’ve also tried with hardware acceleration both enabled and disabled. Same result. I can optimize the same files on my Macbook fine, so it is not the files. Something with the Nvidia shield optimizer. Anyone else having this problem? ---

Betas have rolled out to fix the optimizer for pretty much all platforms except Nvidia Shield. ---
