The last few days I have been having problems with watching the videos on my plex app. All of a sudden now I get a playback error on every video I try to watch. I will select the playlist and no matter what video plays first , I get the playback error. I have to hit retry several times before finally the video will start playing. But once the first video finishes, I get the same playback error for the next video and once again I have to keep hitting retry until it finally plays. It used to be that once one video finished the next one would start. Any ideas would be helpful.

Which Plex app (on which platform/operating system)?

What version of PMS are you running on what operating system?
