Server Version#: 1.41.8.9834  
Player Version#: Just updated  
On my Shield tv pro, after device update and Pleyer too, Plex doesn’t want to start for few minutes!  
Anybody can suggest a solution to solve this issue?  
Before these updates, everything worked!!

Hi Kent  
Sorry for my bad english!  
I mean that when I’m in Nvidia Shield Home, clik on Plex icon, then logo appears and remains freezes!  
After few menutes I can move on Plex home but If I want to watch a movie, I’ve to restart it for many times

I tried to dowgrade to a older version of Plex but Issue is still present! Plex takes few minutes before starting  
So there’s an issue between last Nvidia shield firmware and plex!

I already open a topic in Nvidia forum

I hope someone fix it

Solved  
I restarted the network setting! I suppose it was SAMBA issue  
After nvidia update something was wrong.. maybe samba connection didn’t work correctly

Tks anyway
