Latest update broke Cinema Trailers. When cinema trailer is turned on, the actual movie fails to play, getting a playback error: “Conversion failed. The transcoder failed to start up” If the movie was started BEFORE turning on cinema trailers, and you resume it, it will play fine, however if I start it from the beginning I get the error, this happens on my PC and LG TV clients, but not on the Android client. Plex GUI version 4.147.1 / Linux image 1.42.2 ---

This is an issue with the Trailers trying to play. Disable trailers playing before the movie. We already have an internal issue tracking this problem. ---
