Transcoding of Livetv fails on Nvidea Shield (HDHomeRun Tuner)

Server Version#: 1.31.1.6716
Player Version#: Android App. 9.16.1.38616
Tuner Make/Model: HDHomeRun EXPAND

After purchasing Lifetime Plex I throught I would add livetv to the setup, primarily to be able to access my channels while on the road. So I added a HDHomerun to the setup as this was listed as fully supported.

Locally the setup worked out of the box on the phone, utilizing DirectPlay, however at a bitrate around 30-40Mbps. However switching to mobile internet, the stream tries to load, but fails. Looking in the logs, I see the following errors repeated serveral times

Investigating further, if I force transcoding on local connections, by requireing lower bandwidths either on the app or by server settings I see the same issue.

I’m at a loss how to proceed on this
