Plex Web Player no longer plays after last update

I don’t know if this is a server issue or a Plex Web issue. I haven’t made any changes to my setup besides the recent updates. I don’t us Plex Web often, but the last time I did it was very slow starting playback. But after the recent web update, it no longer will start playback. Sometimes it just spins and sometimes it pops up:

" Playback Error: There was an unexpected error during playback. Please visit our forums if you continue to experience problems."

It won’t play on any web browsers on any device. It will play just fine in any native app Plex player on any device. Just won’t play on Plex Web.

I’ve rebooted all devices. I’ve logged out and back into my account on all devices and the only change is if I get a spinning graphic forever or an error pop up.

My server is a Mac Mini 3.0 GHz 6-Core Inel Core i7 with 64 GB ram. Running macOS Catalina 10.15.6

Server Version#: 1.22.3.4392
Player Version#: Plex Web 4.55.0

I am also experiencing this issue, but I never get the error – it just always spins. This only happens on Plex Web, not on the Android or Android TV apps. My browser (Chrome) and plex media server (1.22.3.4392) are both fully updated.
