@BigWheel My Plex app on my LG55OLEDB6V keeps buffering every second after I skip a few minutes and/or resume any video. This issue can be reproduced with all my movies, regardless of the resolution and bitrate, with or without subtitles., with or without direct play or streaming. However, when I co…

Well it’s definitely time to provide your Sever’s OS and Logs. Or simply roll back a couple versions.

I’ve made an exception with plex media server app on Bitdefender on my mac mini. It stops the buffering on my OLED LG. So beware with antivirus

I’m running the non-previews. Even 4K HDR → 1080p SDR with srt external subs transcodes without problems

I Can confirm it works here finally

@anon18523487 Not sure if you are aware or not, but this bug seems to finally be fixed. If you do know which version of the client or server fixed the issue, it might help others who are having the problem.
