My Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 has Server Version#:1.18.0.1913
Per the announcement from Plex:
Starting January 31st, Plex Media Server version 1.18.2 or higher will be required to continue fetching TV show posters and episode thumbnails from TheTVDB.
According to the Google Play Store on the Shield, I have the most up to date version, or at least it doesn’t give me an option to Update… How do I update the Shield Pro to a higher Server Version? Do I have to uninstall and reinstall?
Using a web browser on a PC, go to the Plex Media Server page in the Play Store, and select the Install button, even if it says “Installed.”
It should push the latest version to your Shield.
Found this in support info.
Unlike a regular Plex Media Server you might run on a computer or NAS device, you can’t arbitrarily update the server version. Instead, new Plex Media Server updates will be released on Google Play specifically for the NVIDIA SHIELD.
Hopefully a new version gets pushed out before the end of the month.
Thank you! I just expected there to be an update button within the My Apps section on the Shield for Plex updates. I guess that would be too easy.
Thanks again!
