(Plex player for Mac ≤ 1.81.0.4012 have all worked fine. Reverting back to 1.81.0.4012 restores functionality.)
Since the Plex for Apple TV UI is dung,failing many times every day, and frustrating my wife every day, a couple times weekly I use the Plex player for Mac UI to look for upcoming OTA Live TV specials that might of interest to her as follows:
Live TV
Browse
[Episodes] => [Shows]
[By Name] => [By First Aired]
Step 3 fails 100% with both Plex player for Mac 1.82.1.4022 & 1.82.2.4024:
I tried Refreshing the Guide, Optimizing Database & Cleaning Bundles to no avail.
(I will send logs and databases directly to staff.)
This problem may be related to the web client (it’s used by the desktop clients for navigation). I tested the following clients:
Exhibited the problem:
Plex for Mac 1.82.2.4024
Hosted web client from app.plex.tv (version 4.119.2)
Did not exhibit the problem:
Plex HTPC (version 1.51.1.4020)
Server’s embedded web client (version 4.116.1)
Android Mobile client (version 10.3.0.4685)
Plex app on Apple TV 4K (version 8.28)
Plex channel on Roku (version 7.11.2.8830)
The commonality may be that the clients which use the newer web UI for navigation experience the issue. (My available clients are limited, however.)
