Plex 1.18.2.2058 - Mac Server to LG & Xbox, gets stuck buffering

Server Version#: 1.18.2.2058
Player Version#: latest Plex players on LG Smart TV and Xbox One

Have been running Plex successfully from old Xeon-based Mac Pro Mac 10.11 El Capitan to LG TVs and Xbox Ones about the house for almost a year. With last couple of Server updates, but particularly this latest 1.18.2.2058, direct (not transcoded) file playback is now stalling out in ‘Buffering’ loop, sometimes will run for minutes at a time…and will now always stall out if try to resume playback.

Any ideas? Anyone else finding this latest update has an issue? What are my options…up to now have loved the steadfast Plex system. Thx!

I’ve found using Pause is an issue, I now stop the Title and when ready commence again where I left.

Also in Plex Media server I have noticed a setting (Terminate Sessions Paused for Longer Than) with a field. I have set it at 3 Minutes but it allows Zero. Not sure how long this setting has been there, using Server Version: 1.18.3.2111
