Been using xTeVe to stream liveTV via PLEX for many years. I have the server on my main house computer and view LiveTV channels via numerous TV’s (embarrassed to say there are 12 in the house, 3 on Roku devices, 4 RokuTV’s and all others running PLEX app via LGios or googleTV(HiSense). Just ~3 wks ago certain channel will not stream on any of the TV’s in the house (standard error message of stopping after multiple errors), However those same problematic channels work perfectly fine on the computer housing the PLEX server. All devices are hardwired, except the 3 roku devices, at 1gb network speed with an Orbi 840 and 2 satellites (also hardwired), so shouldn’t have any network speed issues. I can only think this started because of a recent PLEX update, but I can’t figure out what settings on the TV/roku apps or possibly the server might fix things.
Thanks,
Brian

I’ve narrowed this issue down to specific TVs and operating systems. There are specific channels via LiveTV that will not stream with PLEX on Roku and GoogleTV. I have 2 LG TV’s that run the PLEX app directly and they work great! All of my TCL Roku TV’s have the issue, any TV’s running a Roku device, and all my HiSense TV’s running GoogleTV. I’ve concluded this must related to subtle differences in the PLEX app itself installed on these different platforms. If anyone has any suggestions on settings that might help, much appreciated.
