It was nice when the feature to start from the beginning or watch live was made available but now it does not work right. It does not always start from the beginning it would star sometime 15 min or more. When clicking on watch live it sometime crashes. Also just started watching a show from the beginning it played 3 min. Then jumped to 34 min.

I am running Plex media server 1.16.2.1321 and am having a similar problem. Recording a 2 hour show that started at 8:00pm. I started trying to watch at 9:24, only will let me go back as far as 9:17.
