Short Videos not always marked as played even though they have been played all the way through

This is more of an annoyance.

I have noticed with my Shield TV and Shield TV Pro when playing music videos, which are about 3-7 minutes a piece, the video would play and queue up to the next one and playback just fine. It is not a playing issue. But, when I go to the home page, it shows the played videos with the yellow line indicating that the video played but did not completed, even though it did.

I recently ripped the Looney Tunes Golden Collection and those episodes are typically 7-8 minutes long, too, and as I play those some show up as partially played, even though I watched the whole thing.

When I use the web client on Chrome, I have not seen this issue. It seems only the NVDIA Shield and Shield Pro boxes I have exhibit this behavior.

My work-around has been just going through and marking these videos as watched.

I am guessing there is some minimum video length required to get Plex to mark the video played. Like I said, it is an annoyance.

Sounds like the same bug

There are other links in that post. It happens on several Fire Tv’s connected to my server.

I haven’t had my Shield connected in a long time so I’m not sure if it happens on there or not

It started for me on short videos but now it does it on random episodes of any length

I can’t find a pattern. Videos encoded at the same time, same settings, same length, and it happens to some but not others
