Switched to Plex HTPC to retain remote control functionality, but the thing won’t stay running, it crashes on media load some of the time, and some of the time just idling.

No contro…

Yesterday I was playing around with different remotes and trying different input maps I moved a .json file into the C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\PlexHTPC\inputmaps It crashed Plex, the screen went black and I even lost mouse and keyboard function. I’m sure it’s advisable to close Plex before y…

The controller crash is absurd. When using Kodi to enter, you basically have to disable your controller. Even post launch, Plex HTPC doesn’t even react to a dual sense controller… It’s basically useless in my HT.
