Roku Playback Issues

Server Version#: 1.43.0.10492
Player Version#: TCL Roku TV and Roku Ultra, Plex app version is 9.2 Build 20

Files that worked perfectly fine before, don’t work now. I didn’t change any settings, sure, Plex and Roku have released updates so someone broke something somewhere. These files play perfectly fine on other platforms not named Roku.

This has been happening now for almost 2 weeks.

This is an example file - It’ll just sit at 33% and then throw an error that playback has stopped and to check my connection.

I’ve tried everything I can find…Deleted Plex cache/codecs folders, disabled direct play/stream, forced playback to 720P, etc…Nothing works.

This is happening on our Roku Ultra and TCL Roku TV, our Roku Premiere appears to be unaffected. If I fire up the Plex app on our Samsung TV, this same file plays perfect.

Anyone else?
