I have a PMS on Synology NAS. For quite a few months now I have noticed that when resuming content it will be sped up by at least 2x. This doesn’t happen when playing from the start. It does happen however if you skip forward or back. The only appears to happen on android devices (phones, Shield TV, etc.). The fix appears to be to change the playback settings from convert automatically to play original and then skip to where you need to go. If I try to change to play original mid way through the content then it stops playing, this can only be done when playing from the start. I have experienced this issue for months, I thought it would be picked up in an update but I am still experiencing it. Is there any other way to solve this? ---

When I change it to convert automatically playback switches to double speed (like fast forward). The problem only happens on my NVidia Shield. PC playback is fine. (I haven’t’ tested with any other players.) [image] This has been reported but for some time now there has not been a fix ---

Sorry, I had a browse but obviously didn’t look hard enough. Disappointed that there is no fix though. ---
