Copy the contents of the [Plex media info](https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/201998867-Investigate-Media-Information-and-Formats) XML of a video after you have reset ([Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) 'd) it.  
Then do the same after the video starts to transcode on playback.

Compare the two versions of the XML and/or post them here.  
(DON’T post the link to the XML files on your Plex server)
