After playing happily on my Sony Google TV for a couple of years, suddenly plex crashes on starting to play a programme. Old files, new files, Live-TV recordings: all the same problem. I navigate to the programme, press play, the programme starts and, within 3 seconds, jumps back to the plex loading logo.  
The Sony TV received an update recently, not sure if that is connected.  
I can play from a mobile and cast to the TV, using plex or VLC.  
The server is a ReadyNAS 512 box.

You might try reinstalling the Plex app on the TV - [How to Get Plex for Sony Google TV? | TVsBook](https://www.tvsbook.com/threads/how-to-get-plex-for-sony-google-tv.6864/).
