Hi,
Trying to have Plex play back an mpeg2ts file (through a plug-in), and the startup (or seek forward) is very slow (and I mean VERY slow … ;)). I have a feeling it’s because I’m not setting all the needed parameters - I say this because of the following in the server logs,

The line above that stands out to me is,
Aug 23, 2015 20:57:03:390 [4208] ERROR - [Transcoder] [mpeg2video @ 029b4460] Invalid frame dimensions 0x0.
Thinking this is the problem (0x0 dimensions), but I could be wrong. Any pointers on this? Has anyone else had this issue?
Thanks!
