I have been having issues with the Plex DVR and starting shows from the beginning while they are recording.

100% absolute fail on yesterday’s college games (except using Emby). Tested using ROKU Ultra and ATV for clients, latest server updates on an i7-4770 with non-blocking Gb wired interfaces, Hauppauge PCI quad tuners x 2 (8 tuners) and most recent client updates. No transcoding. Still as broken as …

I tested on some of the devices that in general have a much higher market penetration and presumably that would mean in more households. I tested again with the ROKU Ultra, Streaming Stick+, Streaming Stick…
